Same here.

I can always put on more clothes to stay warm but I’ll get arrested if I take to many off.

Y'all wack! It's nearly impossible to turn a bolt with 2 pairs of gloves on. Let alone even feel the bolt when your hands are frozen.

I'd rather have the cold then the hot!!

Its and interesting thing. When it’s below 35 I am good down to the mid teens without using heat in the garage and will spend a couple hours outside tinkering. When it gets to between 35 and 50 I get chilled and pissed off at the weather. I am good with it here until the end of February. After that I am DONE with it. Spring here sucks in my opinion and if we get an east wind off lake Michigan it is bone chilling. I am usually not happy again until June.

Yep! Done a lot of stuff on the car in the garage when it’s below freezing. Below 0, that’s another thing. Guess it’s just part of life here in Iowa and the Midwest in general. I’ll let the car run a little to warm up the engine bay. That residual heat does wonders.

Don’t have to slap mosquitoes in the winter.

I may never know what's that like.

I hate when it's so cold and you skin your knuckle working under the hood---that you don't bleed right away. That's cold!

 

[Rocket Man]

F winter. I HATE the cold, maybe because I work outside. I’m glad we don’t see many days below freezing here and snow every 2-3rd winter. It’s pretty mild here.

Anyway....tada. It’s done. Finished everything except the skid plates and I can’t do those until I move the front jack stands. Filled it with fluid, hooked up the battery and started it up and tested it while still on the stands. It’s getting kinda dark so I’ll drop it down tomorrow morning and test drive it. Yay!
