What cold weather???
It was over 90 degrees here today! Y'all call it summertime, we call it "cooler" fall weather!

Nothing has been an issue on either of our cars....in fact this winter I am enjoying so far, the heater in my car works flawlessly! (brand new monovalve in there!) I also changed the oil in my dad's car over to 0w40 Mobil 1 Synthetic today instead of Rotella 15w40 dino. Could tell the difference right away.
Oh, and Autozone no longer sells the Fram CH2930 MB filters (the turkish ones), they "offer them" but don't tell you if the ones they can special order are the turkish or Indian versions. STP does have one in stock, and it looks like a piece of crud, it even LOOKS poorly made, and its made in India. We ended up just getting another dealership one, at least they seem to be well put together in comparison.

Your two days of rain equals a foot of snow for us.

We never have snow here anymore, I miss it, school cancellations No problems so far, its been getting down to the 40s at night here, she starts right up in the morning and when/if it does get to the point where its hard to start, my remote start alarm has a timer start function that can be used like a block heater to keep the engine warm.
