My, you live in the sunny south!

Definitely use the 5W40 Delvac if you can find it, it will make starting much easier on the battery. You might get a cold snap, even in Toranatah.

I lived in Sault Ste Marie, had to leave the car outside (primitive living, civilized people have heated garages!). My old Dodge Aries started reliably at -35F in February, every time. Why, I don't know, but it did!

I miss the snow, we just get four months of October here.

I DON'T miss the salt on the roads -- the Aires dissolved, including the fins on the rad.
