Ive taken at least 10 calls today from people who need their radio code cause they thought they would replace their battery themselves. Pretty spendy choice if its older than 05

I bet it has more to do with being a ford then the fuel

The 6.4 diesel started but was pissed off. I should have plugged it in.

i wonder how much life is taken out of engines in this area from the cold weather

cold ass starts and waiting for oil to get to operating temp is not good for anything

I have a block heater and oil pan heater and i don't like to start it when it is balls cold unless it has had those plugged in just for that reason

As soon as it hits freezing mine is plugged in (I only have the block heater though).

I do because i don't change the weight of my oil up, stays 15-40 shaffer's synthetic all year....

If it is below zero and i don't have the oil heater plugged in...... it will start and idle for about 5 seconds..... and then wham .....when the oil pump primes becasue it about kills it....

lol that cant be good

My power steering seemed fairly frozen today in my Durango and my brake/ABS light popped on for about an hour today then went away. Who knows, but damn it's already -20 right now so should be another great morning.

My snowmobile is going to be such a bitch to start I have a feeling. Stupid tripples

No problems starting the pickup or the prelude yesterday or today. They sit outside. Just lucky i guess.

Not even my jungle juice froze that hard...

[StangerBanger96]

From the truck on the trip home (like I mentioned earlier)...

And also showed OC or something, which basically meant out of range...IE wtf are you doing out in this weather?
