Matrix is parked for the winter

Well guys, the Matrix is officially parked. I couldnt leave without snapping a few pics though. It is parked next to my old Accord. Mods to the Accord that are visable in the pics are Magnaflow cat-back, 1.5' eibach lowering springs, and DIY blackhoused headlights.






I had just undercoated and put the winter tires and rims on the Trix because I didnt realize I would be getting a winter car. This is what I will be driving this winter:

I'm curious as to why you would go to the trouble and expense of putting winter rims & tires on your Matrix and then just park it for the winter.

Were you deployed to Afghanistan?

I purposely bought a Matrix AWD XR with Canadian winters in mind

My parents told me I could have the Elantra about 3 weeks after I put the winter rims and tires on and under coated it. I drove my Matrix last winter, so I had already purchased the winter rims and tires last winter. I am currently in college lol so no I was not deployed.
