POR-15 has been applied.

 

No, not to the dog!

 

Does Taffy get brittle in this cold weather? Shoveling to find Blunt packages ??

Lemons?  Make lemonade!  Look at the bright side- at these temps, you don’t even need dry ice to make the asphalt floor liner brittle. Just start chipping it up with a screwdriver.

Or just open the door and let it drip out!!

and it has cooled down a bit now..

That's a balmy 102F for us Yanks.  Sounds pretty good right now!

It’s been pretty cold over here the last month.

One of the chores living in the COLD country is to have the battery tested and cables looked at for problems before Thanksgiving each fall.  Spent my first 22 years near Fargo, ND on the MN side.

 

Yeah, I'm learning a lot about cold-weather prep.  ...Something about battery warmers?  Good to know for next time.  I think my daily is just having some electrical issues - but its too damn cold to take things apart now.  

 

There's plenty more winter-things I'm learning though....none of them good.

1. I learned that door locks can freeze.  With you inside the car. 

2. I brought my car from Cali with a 50/50 washer fluid/water mix...then remembered that water freezes. 

4. Discovered road salt.  WTF.   Didn't know cars could rust that much.  O.O

I seen you about 6 months back when I was over there working in the Marriott installing some industrial machinery. Quite a nice 2002 you have.
