Sick of the rain

[Photo pro]

Every day, all it does is rain. Just when I think it's time for a little drive...BAM! It rains again.

This is worse than storing it in the winter time.

I'm right up the road from you (Chattanooga) and I know how you feel. This weather is horrible!

Haven't you guys in GA just come out of a seven year drought or something? Believe me, here in Ohio we get more than our share of rain so I can sympathize.

GA and upstate SC WERE in a drought two years ago. Last year and this year we've been drenched. Not as bad as the guys in Houston though.

I drive in the rain, every day. I just need to get the car on a lift after this is over and detail the entire underside of the snake. Although, when doing my last oil change, the bottom of the engine was SPOTLESS! No oil drips, no road crap, nuthin. It was still beautiful semi-shiny aluminum (at 12000 miles!)

It's been raining here in Houston for 2 solid weeks. It must be Global Cooling

Been raining every day for over two weeks here too in New Orleans. Man, ground is so saturated that if a hurricane even thinks about coming close to us...the city will go under water...

Just curious...why are so many of ya'll afraid of driving your Viper if it is raining? I assume most everyone with an RT/10 has a top for it...and as I understand it...with newer tires, sliding around isn't a problem any more?

Just curious why a little rain would keep you from driving your car?

My sympathies, as well. I used to live in Spain, away from the plain, and little rain. I'd be happy w/less rain here in the Ohio Valley.

What the rain hurts the car? DRIVE IT ITS FUN!

I don't enjoy driving the car in the rain because the windows are up, the top is on, one can't hear the exhaust as well and the car is getting road grime on it which must be cleaned off. I also don't think the wipers work especially well. I prefer to keep the car very clean at all times and not driving it in the rain makes cleanup easier. I prefer to drive my 03 SL500 on those bad days.

The month of June in Houston = ZERO sunny days - just shy of 20" of rain.

I don't want to hear it.

Must be nice to be in sunny SD... how's June Gloom? Hopefully almost gone by now.

Just a thought...with all of this water...maybe I should drop the V10 into a Bayliner, just for the thrill of it.

I wish I had that kind of problem instead of figuring out how to fit the wife and kid into the Viper.

Solution: Let them drive the minivan and meet you.

It rained 13.5" here in June. 3rd wettest on record.

Sucked mightily.

Here in Dallas it is not much better. Guess it is good I have a WRX. It is still fun. Hope the weather stays clear this weekend!!
