hey guys  
stop your complaining, j/k lol

i just got back from the coldest place on earth  
the pole was -33 when i went  
and they use ford’s down there for vehicles  
and they are unleaded not diesel’s  
there are very few diesels down there

but yea my saab loves this weather it takes like 3-4secs to start but a little while to warm up but good weather for the turbo ;D

ps here is one of the ways we got to and from work:

and those buildings in the background are where we sleep/stay when we are not working

my “beater” is a vr6. the car runs fine when its cold. only drawbacks are slow cranking because of the 15w50 mobil 1 i’m running.

i agree with jason, the carolina’s would be pretty much ideal.
