   BTDT- Once.  Was in November.  Had to remove the duct tape from the
foot well air ducts before the trip.  Experienced  6" of snow
overnight in Ashtabula Ohio and the next day was one of those sloppy
wet experiences where you use up a ton of bug juice just trying to
keep the wind screen transparent.

  Reapplied the tape after we made it home, and don't have any
expectation of ever removing it again- at least not until the blower
motor locks up solid, and so far, so good- a shot of Tri-Flo applied
through the K-hole has been doing its job for almost a year.
