I'm guessing winter coat sales are up in many southern states.

It's funny watching people around here....they're all bundled up like it's so cold. I walked to the gym yesterday afternoon in shorts and short sleeve shirt. The people around here don't really know cold.....

I looked at Las Vegas yesterday at about 2:00 and it said they were at 35 degrees. I would love to see everyone's reaction to that. Giant parkas, ski masks, and what not. Compared to the 2 degrees it is here right now, that would feel like a damn heat wave.

Wow, it's colder in TX than here. Yesterday it was actually in the 60's. Had the sunroof open. In the last few years, that's become pretty normal for an occasional warm day in winter up here.

I wonder what Al Gore has to say about all this.

He just turns up the heat in his 10000 sq. ft. home.

Then takes his private jet to Washington to say that we've past the tipping point and our ocean's currents have changed.

Those taillights look different than the sedan's (size, not just the lack of ribs), but if they aren't, I have a set if you need them. Are you leaking coolant? 6th picture.

LOL at that pic. It's either that cold, steve's suggestion, or you have really low compression.


I want one of those cars. It would make a hell of an ice race car.


I would expect to see hockey equipment in a canadian car. Do you leave it there overnight?



MN is the closest thing to canada you will find in the states. Not quite there, but the most brutal of anywhere down here in terms of cold.

Ya i leave the equipment there all night, haha.

YOu would expect this thing to make a good ice car but the reality is, No power steering and a short wheel base can make it hard to control unless you have some good tires.

As far as the coolant goes my lower hose blew off but its all fixed now.

I have been freezing down here. yeah, sure, it's a relatively mild 44F, but our house has no heat or insulation. I guess I'll stop my complaining when I get to Montana next week.

While we haven't had the bitter cold of Canada or MN, we did get a fresh 3' of snow over the last 30hrs :). A high of 14* today, 5* tomorrow and another snow storm rolling in on Sunday.

Its all relative, really. If you're used to -10, 20 feels great, and -30 is cold. Same goes for heat.


I'd rather take the cold up here than the hot muggy weather of other parts of the country.

Global warming?? :shock:

But yeah, I live in that sunny 60 deg. area! Just thought you'd like to know! :D
