I don't have much use for garage queens.
I can't speak for all tub owners, Mark - but you'd be surprised at the number of us who either own "drivers" - not garage queens - and/or drive their tubs come hell or high water.

I can understand putting them away when there's salt on the roads for those located in the north.

On a side note....the paint job on mine is nothing close to perfect but at 15 feet looks pretty good. I have a key scratch almost the entire length of the passenger side - which I term a "jealous lover's scratch". I'm always amazed at the number of folks who 'automatically' suggest I get the whole car repainted so it will be in 'show' condition. I wouldn't want that - not at all. I like a few battle scars on the old gal....which is quite appropriate given her (and my) age!

"Drive 'em!"
