unfortunately, my bonne is being driven in it this year. 
But the salt is being removed ASAP hopefully :? If I had any real say in it, it'd stay in the garage all winter. So sad for a car that has such minimal rust at best.
Hopefully it'll be back with me by the time next winter rolls around. Probably by the time I move to NC.

My car is a year rounder until I can afford a beater/winter truck.
Wish I could winter store it :(

Unfortunately, my car is a 12 month car. The only good news, is our area doesn't get a lot of snow (save for yesterday 
) and I park underground with a carwash bay, so....its not as bad as it could be.
Once 2 incomes start rollin in....oh baby....look out....winter rat and 2 decent cars to drive in

i registered here because i needed some info on fixing my mothers ssei. myself, my 'good car' is something most would use as a winter beater. my winter beater is a 1995 explorer with almost 185k miles on it.
i picked the truck up for almost nothing, threw used tires on it, newbrake pads and rotors, fixed the 4wd. i have about $750-$800 in truck today to date [including purchase price].

i will drive it until it is no longer economically worth while to do so.
