BRRRRR...Damn it's cold here.
This sucks. I got the wheels all polished, the plugs changed, new wires etc and detailed and polished the whole car. This morning when I woke up it was -40 Cel which is the same as -40 F which is fricking cold. !!!!!
We have a ton of snow and with the windchill it is -56 C. No wonder there are hardly any Vettes around here....let alone Verts...LOL
I can't wait for spring. 3 more months to go before the roof comes off. It's going to be a long winter.

Yikes! I don't ever want to be where you live in the winter!
It's 30F here, feels like 20F, and that's too cold for me.
We are doing a cruise tomorrrow anyway....

My thermometer in My Tahoe read 5* today as I drove into the office.
Needless to say my Z is tucked in quite nicely under a nice warm cover in the garage!

That is very cold. Glad I don't live there. I think it is bad here and it is a balmy 17 degrees.

The outside temp display
in the C5 said -5f on my way to work yesterday.
First time this year the roads were clean enough I could actually get it out for a drive...so I did just that.
