    It has been very cold. Highs in the twenties or below the last week. Below zero a few times at night.

    It's been single digits here for several days the past week. I've never had any issues with 4wd engagement/disengagement. Sounds like something is wrong.

    That's not correct, in the jshift it turns of when the front and rear uncouple and in the ones with add it waits until that unlocks.

    My mom lives in Redmond, OR, they've had a ton of snow the last few days. I'm heading up to Denver for a week, driving up there tomorrow and Thursday. I know they've had single digit weather the last few days too.

    I've had my fill of winter weather this year. More snow than I've seen in a long time. Glad the spring weather is back! Still, it's been a nice change from what San Diego got, which was just chilly and sometimes wet.

    this winter has been chill compared to last year. Last year up here is started snowing in September and didn't stop until April. Was a really nice beautiful Fall. Didn't really get bad till mid Feb here really.

    It's been just foul down here. Sun shining, 65-75°, birds chirping, the occasional light rain.

    I survived last summer, and I'll survive this one. Only gotta make it to August then I'm leaving for cold weather states again because as stated before, this weather is just foul. No freaking seasons here

    Haha, we have school delays in N.C. when it gets into the 20’s. Not snow or anything, just too cold for our little darlings to venture out.

    It seemed more straightforward than it was.

    Ended up cutting a good bit out of the lower part of the panel. I used a right angle adapter for the CB cable since it hits the air conditioning behind it. After all of this, it sits 3/4" ahead of my headunit.

    It's not what I envisioned but it's snug in there and works well.
