I'm an old fart too, six years retired. The car is in storage at my home but hasn't moved since October last year. I will be converting to full coverage before the policy expires on the 31st.I'm sorry that I am an old fart and have to warn you, but don't mess with expirations of contracts. You will be driving it home on the 31st, or they will be seizing it and selling it at your expense. Where do you live? You should be able to take it home before the end of March for sure.
Yes, Vancouver Island is generally pretty enviable for their road conditions year round. I can handle snow without issue when the roads remain wet. I have driven in a LOT worse, lol. I would probably really like living there, but I don't dig the idea of being stuck on that island and having to take a plane or a ferry to get anywhere.
Let's see about when they start to fix the potholes and clean the streets, and maybe that will give me some time to fix my s**t. lol.
Looking forward to gaining the experience of doing that at SM and THEN coming home to do it. Very confident that the experience will come with some practice. I have done it for many years on gravel roads with my little MGB but I have the confidence of knowing what to expect and how to steer and power it out.
Another ‘Yellow’ Vette went by me, yesterday. This time a C7. Around 4:30pm. Turning right from 99st onto 63ave-Edmonton. Are these 2 yellow ‘Toys’ on This forum?? I did see the Sand Trucks, on some Major routes. Maybe we could be driving, even earlier. Perhaps, this week?!?Wellll, I’m glad I called Jim (Corvette Guy) from Northgate-in Alberta, and gave Him a deadline to do the dealer prep (install the XL splash guards and wicker bill mods, etc)-so I can take my New 2019 Z, and get it on the road-April 1! BECAUSE, today, on White Avenue in Edmonton, AB, I spied at 11:32AM, a very clean and shiny Yellow C6. I got the itch. Now let’s see if the dealership can get everything done in time. Zoom zoom!
I would’ve guessed that. You wouldn’t have parked there for one.It’s not mine ... but someone is nudging my thoughts along today while I was out with my daughter to shop at the “strawberry store” ...

Heyyyy! Picked up the Z (I haven’t driven a standard for long long long time. My knees were shaking, lol). The Sun came out. All is well, in the world.Not my first ride, but I got out yesterday. 2.5hrs worth.
I happened to be on the phone with the Parts Desk and them mentioning that someone was just picking up his Orange Corvette.Heyyyy! Picked up the Z (I haven’t driven a standard for long long long time. My knees were shaking, lol). The Sun came out. All is well, in the world.
