Not that you northerners all didn't remember, but I just did here in Michigan. It's probably time to go out into the barn and give the brakes a good dozen pumps or so (just push harder if power brakes). Keeps them from getting storage disease - like seal leakage. You lucky folks down south can just go for another drive

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Oh Yeah. I remember living in Lacy back in '70. Don't have to worry about salt on the roadways like we do here. I just don't start mine until spring unless I can get it really warmed up - saves the exhaust system. We have that darn salt dust even when the roads are dry. Doesn't go away until a good spring rain. Ah spring. I almost remember what warm weather was like

Be safe and have fun on that drive.
