Sooo... we went to the movies and watched National Treasure. It's better than most reviews would have you believe. I was actually, literally, on the edge of my seat... I couldn't wait to see what happened next! Combine that with the largest root beer Galaxy sells, and well I would have blew Donovan Bailey's (Ben Johnson's? :blink: ) doors off running to the can afterwards.
Anyways... I'm exhausted, we had eaten at Greco's for dinner and we were both severely stuffed. We got home and I forgot to plug in the car!
I went out to finally start it at 3PM after hoping it had warmed up some through the day. Mmmm nope. Went from -29C to -27C. Crap. However, it started in 5 cranks. Never stumbled or stalled. Needless to say when we got home this evening the block heater was connected as soon as I parked :lol:
Once again, the wondercar surprises me. The last time I tried the "super cold start" stunt was -38C with my old Tempo... and that resulted in the gas and the oil "getting friendly". Not fun :angry:
