    -40 means thick oil, shattered CV joints and dead batteries. I have never been in temperatures that cold, close to but not that cold.

    Well, I can say that some of us keep our homes warmer than we would because we have a spouse that is constantly cold.:laugh:

    That's my motto. If my wife had her way she would probably like 74 or 75 degrees. And no air conditioning.

    I spent thirty years in residential construction, I know I’ve pissed off some home owners. They never mind the noise, dust and mud when we were building their house. Moved a family in the back of the subdivision, beautiful lot. It took 3 years to build out that subdivision, they got to drive through all that mud,dust.

    When at home our thermostat was at 68°. Now its 70°
    Seems like the older I get the thermostat gets set a little higher.


    You need a cat or 2.
