Okay we have gone from one extreme to another.....last week it was FREEZING -35 all week, now we have rain :? And guess what happens to rain when it freezes at night.....you got it.....all of the roads around here will become skating rinks.

I am getting tired of these weather changes, I wish Mother Nature would make up her mind!!!!!

Yep. Kinda sucks when the salt is melting the stuff on the roads, the spray is collecting on your windshield, and the wipers just smear it around....

What a great way to end the week.......Pulled it in the garage and got it thawed out though.....Then went and got the coolant flused and the oil changed......120 bux later......I better be alright now or I'm gonna park my truck on the lake and cut a hole around it with a chain saw,


Sorry.....Just had to vent....Any one else having a hard time with the cold?
-6 right now witha wind chill of -20 degrees. Expecting 8-12" of snow tomorrow. My car is staying in the garage.
