Here in Southern Ontario, Niagara area they are still hitting the roads with salt because of the weather. Even when the temps were up 2 weeks ago they were still putting the liquid stuff down on the over passes and mountain roads. Hope things turn around soon.

Pony Ride,

I picked mine up on the 2nd of April, right in the middle of all that nice weather. I got it home and the next day it started raining/snowing and I haven't been able to get it out since. So there it sits in the garage under a cover waiting.......................

Nope, my insurance became effective 2 weeks ago and the weather has been crappy ever since.

Here in Vermont ( sometimes refered to as part of Canada) , You just drive in between the snow storms. ON the dyno tomorrow, between the two passing fronts.. Spring will someday come. I hope before July....

Here in Quebec, it seems like winter was delayed by about a month. We didn't have snow for Christmas (which is exceptional around here), but we had a couple of major snow storms in March and much more snow than usual in April. Just changed my snow tires on my daily driver this morning (about 2 weeks behind schedule). Only drove the Shelby on April 1st and then last Thursday for a total of around 200KM. This is getting very frustrating. :angry2:

All A-OK here in NW Connecticut...no snow yet! Drove my SGT to work today, and again tomorrow. The cool temps seem to be giving it even more power!!

Edit: Sorry, I didn't realize this was the Canada region when I posted! Didn't mean to rain (snow?) on your parade!
