Bobby an you do a cold start video of your oldest pickup truck just so we can have al least one in the forum and with temps that low I think it’s justified lol

I have a 2013 Jeep WK2. I can see what I can do, but might not remember. If I had Square D or something similar like that it would be a bit more impressive of a video.

lol it’s just a joke for the most part. It would be the first one on the forum

I know. But I think Square D chugging and burping itself to life in Chief's garage technically counts. I mean it sounded like a cold start video.

That’s if we call it a start more of a spitter and crapped back outlol it’s just a joke for the most part. It would be the first one on the forum

Right now. Supposed to be colder in the morning. I even put my radiator cover on the front and fueled up with #1 diesel.
MN sucks. Lol

Had to stop and take a picture and send it to my wife. I had no idea the thermometers in the cars actually had a minus sign in them....

Well to make you feel better, the road surface temps range from -10 to -23. The road itself has that temp.

Morning Bobby. The craziest thing was tailgating at Lambeau and walking up to the beer tub and the beer was just laying there, with no ice. I was like “where’s the ice”. They said, dude, its -3 degrees, its plenty cold”
I've put stuff I needed kept cold in the snow while hunting.

When it gets down into the teens you have to put the beer in a cooler to prevent it from freezing. On a similar note, you know its cold in WI when even the bars start closing due to weather.

So it started fine. Yesterday after work it wouldn't remote start so now I have a check engine light on and I had low tire pressure warning last night.
Then this morning driving in my windshield washers decide to go off all by themselves. 5 or 6 times in a row before they finally stopped! Driving looking through a hole in the smudge while it evaporates away. It happened one time before like that when it was really cold. We will see if it starts tonight and if the check engine light goes away. I think it will after you start and stop it several times. Computers! Grrrr.

It actually got cold in a few places hat always whine about how cold they are.
We’ve been locked at or below -40 for a few days.
Extreme cold warming came with it. For us thats -55 or worse...
This morning -43...I don’t pay attention to wind chill. If I’m out I’m on a skidoo and I don’t want to know what -43 and 75mph means...
It’s currently -33 and I’m blessed how nice it is...
Heading out to skidoo to the cabin to light he fire for the weekend.

Coldest air temp I have physically worked in is -66F and then add about -25F for wind chill.
Its really amazing how the body will adapt to the cold, it got to the point on the sunny days when the air temp was in the -20 range you could run around outside with just a t-shirt

I have seen -57 before, actually many times...at 41,000 feet while sittin' in my toasty warm cockpit. But looking at that OAT gage gave me a chill!
