Will ice hurt my body???

My car is totally covered in a thick sheet of ice from this storm that has dumped on us. Should I be worried about cracking? (not that there is anything I can do now)

My body hasn't had any cracking since the last ice storm... don't think you should worry that much.

When it starts to melt you could carefully lift off the big pieces..

With that subject... "Will ice hurt my body???"... I had to stop in to see who were going to be the *wise-guys*.

And the honor goes to rollavette71 and SharkAttack.... so far! :lol:

I'd be more worried about not having the correct anti-freeze solution and a cracked block.

No. Just let the ice thaw. Do not scrape.

Re: Will ice hurt my body??? (nitrocharger)

yeah well I wouldn't think anything about it until my neighbor said his cracked in the ice, but later tonight he said he drove it with it covered in ice (so of course it cracked moron). So not only is my neighbor an behind but I've also made myself one by posting this! And for all those "smart behind's", I will kick your cars butt-as soon as mine thaws out!

:cheers: :lol:
