Glad to finally say my Marauder can sit one winter out. Shes all clean, waxed up and covered, ready for a deep sleep. The last two years my Marauder has had to endure the winter weather and I've had to freeze my fingers off cleaning her up in 15*F weather. Not this year :P
Who else has their MM under the covers?

Me. After the first snow, it'll be covered most of the time. After a good soaking rain washes the roads, I'll take the MM out for a cruise - probably to a CAM meet.

Thank God we don't have to deal with that down here in the South!
I just check the forecast, and if it's sunny and beautiful, I back the Marauder out of the garage and take her for a spin - assuming I'm not going anywhere where door dings are likely! Otherwise, I hop in the 2000 Crown Vic.

I was thinking about storing my Marauder for the winter a few weeks ago when it got down to 40F and actually snowed a tad three hours north in Orlando. Burrrr.... But then, it's been back up around 80F again, so I had second thoughts...
LOL :) :)

I don't have to worry about harsh winters either; thank God! But my Marauder is my daily driver with my Mach 1 being the garage queen. It's awesome to have a bad ass car like the Marauder to drive every day but I can't help but feel guilty about not having a garage to store it in here at my new house. :( But I can't complain! There are a lot of guys my age that would have a hard time affording one of the cars I own, let alone both and the go fast parts I put on them!

And a lot of guys much older than you who'd also have a hard time affording one of those cars.

Mine is sitting out this winter as well. I still have the insurance on it and will drive it on a sunny day if the roads are dry.
In any case, I am really enjoying not having to go anywhere near a coin-op car wash this winter.

My MM is all tucked away, she has the battery tender hooked up and the MM OEM car cover also protecting her as she sleeps for the winter. She has not seen a winter yet, and never will....

Hibernating in Mom's garage with a battery tender and car cover. Will take it out on nice days. Will have it out sooner when I am ready to add the Procharger and new gears.
Have an '03 Ranger 4x4 to cart my butt around during the winter months.

Mines down for the count too. Here, when the mention the "S" word, the salt trucks come out in force and salt the he** out of nothing. Soooooo, till the first spring rain, all I can enjoy of her is the payment.

Ditto. Insurance ran out November 1st and I haven't looked at it since. It'd be rusty before I made the last payment if I drove it year around.
Doesn't bother me at all though. Makes me appreciate it even more when summer arrives.

Mine's hibernating for the season as well along side it's pony car stable mate.
It spent last winter in the garage too, can't say what it did it's first winter as it wasn't in my care. The 'stang hasn't seen snow in 21 years.
Yeah, it's tough sometimes tucking 'em away for winter but that first drive on a warm spring day is worth it! :burnout:

Same for me. Winter #3 of storage. Clean as a whistle, and covered. Haven't driven it since the middle of October. Only 9500 miles too. I almost don't want to crack 10K next spring.

My MM is my beater, so the snow tires are on and she is kicking butt!
However my Cobra is done for the winter, waxed and covered waiting for spring.

YEA...
You all put your Marauders in the garage...
That just leaves all of the snow rats for me to deal with !
A Marauder in the snow is more fun than you can imagine.
