I haven't moved my car from that spot since early January when i parked it there. It's way too cold to even try to start it.

You can always count on a Canadian to rain down on your winter thread rant


Dude, it may not be retarded cold like -40 but it is a scant 4 degrees right now....that's WAAAAY too cold for my baby to be started. You don't push your luck with 250k+ on the odometer. The lifters could throw in the towel at any time...lol

That looks just like my place! We only ("only" ) got about 15 inches of snow north of Indy, but it's 3 feet deep in my yard. Seems like everyone else's snow drifted to my house.

At least we avoided the ice y'all got down there.

yup, ice sucks, especially when it does stuff like this: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v177/chuckman/trees/

that happened about a month or so ago, lost power, phone, and cable for about a week, and the two big maples and a crabapple tree are now gone. luckily the only real damage to the house was some broken glass on one storm door.

I live in springfield about 250 miles sw of you and it was a warzone down here also i went 13 days without power. You guys had sent a bunch of crews down here to help us. I guess the last bad one you all had we sent a bunch of City Utilites workers up there. Hopefully no one has to go through it again....

We have snow here from October to March every year, and sometimes the temp. wont get over 20F for weeks. Lots of fun, I get to walk everywhere in a winter wonderland freezing my ass off.

I went out today to try and fire my car up...the battery is totally dead. Wouldn't even hold a charge Oh well, funny story with this battery, it was the first battery i bought for my very first Mustang about 5 years ago and it's somehow managed to stay in my possession and jump from 'stang to 'stang, so it's served me well.

Time for an Optima and a 3g
