I'll get it out and drive it on dry days this Winter just to keep it exercised.

Wednesday in SE Wisconsin: Sunny and high 60s. Last drive of the year.
Dirt/debris accumulation minimal after final wash/wax last weekend, so it's bed-time for the Winter:
Because of salt on Winter roads, I will not be driving it on dry days for my fourth Winter owning it.
Ditto all the other winterizing steps, plus plastic sheets underneath as vapor barrier, wood boards under the tires rather than direct contact on concrete, inflate the tires to 50 psi. Did the dessicant packs but not the dryer sheets. I put small disposable plastic containers with mothballs at multiple points around the car instead. I don't put steel wool in the exhaust pipes, but rubber-band Baggies over them (if you can still get Baggies).
