I don't remember seeing that in the manual or any mention on the DVD. I'll have to check out the manual again.

This what my DIC spells out every morning when I first start her up. The temp is going down to -1 degree F tonight.

I went to start the car outside just to keep it from freezing over tongiht. 1st that snow this morning, and now the BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR cold temps
Where in the h-e-double- hoceky-sticks is spring??? I know it's around here somewhere.......

Maybe those NASCAR fans have the right idea... FLorida in mid Feb. hmmmmmmmm

I think my DIC read " BRRRRR----- I'm freezing my ball joints off"

Ha! I hear ya, AVN. It's even better when you wash the truck in the garage, take it outside for a few hours and then realize that the thing is frozen shut, as I did tonight. Pittsburgh in winter!

I've always been amused by the readouts in the GM products I've had- anytime you start it up and it's in the low thirties (or less) you get the "Ice" message.

In Wisconsin, that means it comes on about 300 days a year...

I took mine out for a short ride today.
The temp said it was 19F out and I got the “ICE POSSIBLE” warning.

The seat heaters worked GREAT though.
