Cold, fricken cold!

[jeff kushner]

We aren't used to getting really low temps around here.....10-15 degrees is pretty common but it's the coldest of this year..... so far.


Love that remote start......

It's 3* here right now and in the negative with the wind. Of course I work out side so all bundled up today

 

[jeff kushner]

I feel for you brother....I worked outside for years and generally, its not so bad because you're outside in the weeks as it gets colder....but 3....3 is frickin cold, no matter how long you've worked outside!

I used to "wear" roof insul duct taped to the bottoms of my boots...yeah....3 is cold!

Jeff, 15 degrees is healthy! A good cold period where you live is good to kill insect larvae, molds and deep state leaches!!!

 

[jeff kushner]

I do understand that ...and in this area, ticks are the pest that needs checking.....but dang, I'm looking at houses in the Caribbean, not more cold.
I grew up in MI so we all skied and we even learned to jump as Jr's....and that was fun but now, white sand, palm trees and nice locals with an accent are more my speed<LMAO>....

It was -7 with a -20 wind chill here yesterday morning. This morning it warmed right up to -1 and now its a balmy 9 degrees. It's going up to 15 this afternoon. I might have to break out the shorts!

Heck time to bust the grill open and start flipping burgers, might as well open the pool up too.

Absolutely. The remote start is solid gold....

Luckily they can be installed on any vehicle in existence

I will be grilling tonight....just like every night....I mix it up though...porterhouse, ny strip, dels...a steak every night for dinner....it's actually pretty inexpensive but I love beef and I'm lazy...


for Christmas, I had a remote start installed on my GF's Rogue....evidently, just in time!

I didn't think remote start could be added to manuals. I was always told bypassing the depressed clutch (sensor?) was hard and dangerous. (sorry to hijack the thread)

Nice cold weather gear.

Nah, it’s doable. You install a neutral lockout that will only bypass the clutch sensor if it’s in neutral… at least that’s what the kit for my old Tacoma had. I think it had a setup where it would only allow remote start if the engine had been shut off without the clutch depressed, meaning it was in neutral. Not that you couldn’t put it in gear after-the-fact but yeah.

Not the brightest idea, but there are ways around it.

No worries on the hijack----this is how we all learn!

For those with manual trannys......solution is simple enough.....send your woman out there to start it. IF you are REALLY taking care of her, she won't hesitate but if you are like 97% of couples, she'll tell you to ***....are you willing to risk asking and finding out? LOL

I work an explosive detection dog under Fed contract in this stuff....both of us get cold but we do have a warm-up building. KC is supposed to be in the minus next week. I see they are looking for dog handlers on the atoll of Kwajalein in the south pacific....might go there even though the atoll is 1 mile wide and 4 miles long.

My snowmobile buddies up in the NYS north country (Adirondacks) are finding temps like minus 32F at night ... and they still go out riding! Any exposed skin gets frostbit in minutes, even if not going 80mph on a lake

We've had -7, -11 and -7 the last three nights with daytime highs in the singles. Not usually this cold this early in the winter around here. We have a ski resort next door and we have been using the hot tub the last couple nights outside. There is a great view of the slopes from it, but it didn't look like anyone was skiing. We were in the hot tub at -1 so every 30 seconds or so your hair would freeze over and you'd have to dunk under, the railing down to the tub was covered with ice and the door back to the indoor pool area was also iced over. The water was really hot though and it felt good. Caribbean sounds good to me too though!!

 

[jeff kushner]

Here's a switch....just saw on the Nat News that it's 61 F in Denver!
