I don't want to think of the cold start rattle at that temperature! I hope you have a good oil filter ADV and a block heater!

Going from F to C from post to post is throwing me for a loop. I realize I guys are saying 0 c and then say, ah, not bad at all. 32f is beautiful after those random days at -15 and single digits. It was 2 f this morning.

Give me a break.....We had -21 F here a couple weeks ago and that's only 1 degree shy of yours. We aren't even in our cold time of the year yet. We usually get -30 F here at least once or twice a year. Hopefully we won't this year but I'll let ya know......

Sorry, the thread is called "beat this" not " hey I might put on a windbreaker later after the sun goes down".

We were there last week in FSJ. Only hit -25C today. Nice and balmy! Only +4 the week before that. I'm hitting Vegas this weekend. Supposed to be +14C there this weekend. That'll be like summer!

If you want to play that card we get to -40 a few times a year. Hell we have had some of the coldest days in the world.


But only in Alberta can you have that big of a temp gap within a week.

Global warming has always been bull! It was something people just came up with do they could receive money donations and government funding or assistance. Now they are saying the pole is moving south, come on. Guess enough people have caught on to the global warming scam so they need to come up with something else go get people's money. It's all bull!

It's a fact. We were the coldest place in the world one day this year and one day last year. Lol
