We're about to hit the mid to upper 60's finally here in NYC - YAY!
Time to get that first drive in for the new year.
But before I do, was wondering what advice others may have for a car that has been stored for 6 months of winter hibernation.
Tricks?
Tips?
Suggestions?
Do's?
Dont's?

"The Toy" is scheduled to come out of 'winter hibernation' on the first weekend of April (it was the last car to go into the warehouse so it WILL be the first car out...!!!).
Before firing it up I make sure to check oil, coolant, and brake fluid levels. After hooking up the battery I turn it over with the ignition cut out to get some oil pumped around inside the engine, then put the spark to it!
And before driving any distance I check the tire inflations, make sure I have a solid brake pedal by bleeding the brake lines, and change the engine oil. Then it is off to the closest open parking lot where I do several slow figure 8's (forward and backward) to make sure the posi gets limbered up.
Then it is time to enjoy...!!!
