    This -20 weather is really pissing me off

    So for the past few weeks its been in the negative teens, -20s and -30s. Today my truck finally gave in and wouldn't start so I had to jump it with the vette that hasnt left the garage since october. To top it off after I got it started the stupid TPS light was flashing and the truck was in low power mode or whatever its called for about a half an hour until it warmed up. Its going to be a serious pain in the arse if I have to do this every morning before work now. I dont know why this happened all of a sudden. It started just fine the days that it was -30 out.

    yeah, don't have a place to plug it in at my condo or at work though. Might have to invest in some really long extension cords. lol

    I could never live where you live man. In jersey itll get down into the teens, sometimes below zero. But never 20 below or more. I hate winter for the most part, but I DESPISE the cold.

    Are you from Alaska? Ever consider relocating?

    Thats what I keep hearing. The job I would be doing there is really good though and I get to keep hire back rights up here so I figure I would give it a shot.

    Bwahahahah then you certainly wouldn't like our summers, nothing like 100 degree heat. I only use the A/C when I have company in the car.

    Tell me about it, I'm sick of this -26 crap, but my Z is still running like a champ thanks to my block heater. Makes me glad I don't work on the slope.

    You are 27, dont hesitate to give something like that a shot, specially if you can get your old job back. If you hate the cold, I promise you you'd love key west. Florida rules man. Well except when its hurricane season
