Brrrrrrrrrrr!

-9 this morning here. Fired up the truck and let it warm up for about 10-15 min. No issues starting but the clutch was super sticky and brake pedal hardly moved. Never had this issue before with any vehicle. Ended up taking the wife's Highlander to deliver kids to school.

 

-23*F in Dover-Foxcroft @0730. Was a balmy 2*F in my garage.

 

Now you know why I moved from northern Vermont to south Florida. I don't miss those days where you can't touch metal with an ungloved hand. My wife's grandson is stationed at Minot AFB in North Dakota. He feels your pain.

 

Morning temp was 17 here today. Nice change. it's been -20's this week.

 

That temp sounds terrible and I cant even imagine. It's a crisp 44 here which is cold for the beach. I def have a beanie and jacket on all they way up tell about 70 degrees

 

National Weather Service - Caribou list of low temps this morning. Damn cold!

 

I've got about another 15 years to go but we are hoping to retire on the Florida Gulf coast eventually. We vacation there regularly and have some friends who already live there. I'm on my 50th northern New England winter and I won't miss them one bit.

 

Where is 'here'?

Yup. Maine has 2 seasons - Snow and Black Flies...

Warmer here in NE CT - low was -2°F this morning.

Might be light in VT Saturday - suspect the Cape will get hit harder.

 

Going to be 70 degrees here in SoCal today...the weather is literally the only thing keeping me in this ridiculous state

 

and mexican food

 

Yeah, that too

 

$$$12.99/# Last I saw.

 

County boy!

 

Just outside of Patten.

 

Son works close to Ashland, 30 miles north of me, -39 at 6 am.
Cold down next to the Aroostook river.

 

I don’t envy you people a bit. I’ve never seen temperatures, like what you people are talking about. I would freeze my nutz off in that kind of weather!

 

No clutch, but felt like manual steering and didn't really want to move.

 

That would not be enough for me. Your laws, taxes, and high cost of living would do me in.

 

Question...It was -8 up here in Northwest Indiana yesterday. When I owned Honda Civics I used to cover half the radiator with cardboard because the car would never reach operating temperature, even after driving for 30 minutes. Never done this with my Tacoma. Comments?
