when i went out this morning cause my car wouldn't start with the remote, it was -43, on the thermometer, no wind really. i plugged in the car last night, but my block heater cord was cracked and i didnt know, so i had to do a rewire job out there at 7:50am and it is 9:15 now and she's running. gotta love those little 4 bangers, they dont need to be plugged in for long. i called work to say i was going to be late, and only the secretary was there, everyone else was froze up too lol. you know its cold out when the speedo cable makes the most god awful high pitched squeal when i go over 20 k's. i swear people outside can hear it when i drive by hehe. btw, i'm in cold lake ab

It's not that cold here but 2 weeks ago it was the same deal, and my car was completely frozen for 3 days before i got it towed to a garage. I feel for you [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

or maybe some bumbass borrowed your car and drove away without unplugging it.. [img]tongue.gif[/img] jk
