    You need to put in the winter formula. Lower freezing point.

    I'm still working on my original tank of fluid from the dealer and its freezing up too.As soon as it's gone,which will be soon given the major storm we just got,it'll be winter stuff.

    To be honest (which is rare) I just by the "blue stuff" at the parts store, is it labeled or a different color ?

    I think it's pink. I'm in New Orleans. We don't have much of a need for that sort of thing. I think that once I saw ice on my windshield.

    It's still the blue stuff but I believe the winter stuff has a navy blue part on the label that says "winter formula" while the summer stuff is in red.

    Cool, I was starting to really wonder how F-ing cold it is up here, and maybe I was just getting used to it, with wind chill, maybe in the teens ?

    Yeah, it's freaking cold up there. I know Rochester can get a crapload of snow, too. I definitely don't miss the NJ winters and I would probably die in a place like Rochester at this point.

    High 20's, maybe, and wind since it's on the ocean. And definitely go to the White House and get a hoagie. It's on the boardwalk.

    Ah, I can't think of one offhand. See, I lived 45 mins from there so we'd just head down, gamble a bit, and hit a buffet. You have the usual group of chains like Planet Hollywood and Hard Rock but there aren't any that I can think of that are particularly outstanding.

    That's cool, we will probably just go to the restaurant at the hotel, being in that area they're all going to be good, keeps the crowds happy.

    YEAH!!!

    On my 2007 - My passenger side froze up last week. Ticked me off.....

    It was getting fluid as I could see it seeping out. It eventually started working as the truck warmed up.

    We shouldn't have to worry about what fluid we're buying. :rolleyes:
