It got a little cold down here in south Florida, and driving the other day, cold rain, it was about 68 out. I said to the wife, man this is cold, and the rain. She sez, "Yeah, quit complaining, at least we ain't shoveling it". Nuff said.
It will be 73 today, not a cloud in the sky. Spent many years in Ohio, snow, slush, freezing rain, stuck on expressways.
With all the jobs there is in the south, I can't see any reason any car enthusiast would want to stay up there, especially after retirement.
North Carolina was great also, little colder then here, but very nice state to live in.
