Woke up this morning to -41c ! Let that sink in! Can't spend more than a few minutes outside. That is approaching the coldest day I, personally, have ever seen here. 😳 the low -50s is my record! Had to start a hand crank engine at work that day, and... Read more.

You need to make friends with a moose, and cuddle on the couch. Do the words florida sound good. I was crabby here in good old taxachusetts by waking up at 32 degees f. I may just put my speedo on and head outside for a little sun.
Or some exercise..good for the heart...
Not seeing anyone in that picture i want to break sweat with.
Greg,the Fahrenheit equivalent to -41c is almost the same,at -41.8.Probably should park the truck inside the garage.
Yikes! That is too cold!!Those folks playing Basketfoot ball? have had too much spiked eggnog😄

Richard,I'd like to read that book. By the way,if salt causing corrosion is a concern,there was an article that mentioned,that it happens above freezing.Like when a car is driven and then brought into a +32F garage overnight,the process starts.If left outside and temps are below freezing,then no problem.
Richard, I so hope that your echo results are favorable!! We got more snow today, and tomorrow, and then supposed to see -37c ! 🥶 but it's been a pretty nice winter so far. I saw a video of a guy that tried to pet a moose. I stopped watching... Read more.
Brady, salt and corrosion are definitely a concern here. Maybe better to leave my truck out of the garage during the winter?
Richard, glad to hear your eye is at 29/20 (prayer works). Praying for everything to go perfect with your echo next week. Let us know when left eye will be done. God bless you hvs brother 🙏❤️
Greg,yeah,maybe try one of of those dipstick or oil pan heaters,if it gets really cold.
