Your correcta dead battery doesn't make it a pos
being a civic makes it a pos
go get an altima for a beater

cold weather always gets the best of batteries.
that doesn't make the civic a pos though

hope you get it fixed soon. I woke up to 1/2 inch of snow yesterday morning. Made me glad for a few things:
1. got a 3 car garage and 1 of those bays is where the Mustang is bedded down for the winter.
2. Bay number 2 has the 4wd Ranger, which is what I'll be running from now til April 08.
I really feel for you man - I would have hated to drive the Stang in that crap yesterday - my truck had all kinds of leaf schmeg and dirt all over it when I got home - yuk!

Wow I'm glad I live in California where it will never snow, all that ice and snow you guys have to deal with sounds like a pain in the a$$, I couldnt go a whole week w/o driving the mustang let alone till April. Be safe in the cold weather, or better yet move to California and move in with me, we can drive the stangs all year long

ford dude ur avatar is really annoying now- wtf? why flashing things

so I first put in two transperant sides so it would look right
then I felt like being creative so I made it an animated gif (and did the same to my avatar here for uniformity)
if 2 more people complain I'll change it back

RE: Stupid &*$% POS Civic Winter Car
sorry but that car looked just too darn good to be a beater!
Got to get what I had. A 1974 Toyota Corolla. Never washed it... cause there really wasn't any paint left!
Had a problem with the hood closing so I would try to stand on the hood and jump up and down to get it to lock. Had leaking brake lines, so once when I forgot to fill the master cylinder I ended up not being able to stop and made a right turn and ended up going down a one way street in Beverly Hills in order to not run the light and crash.
Had to strap 2 flashlights to the hood when the lights went out.
Funny thing was it had a super smooth bullet proof transmission!
Ended up getting impouned so I took out the stereo and signed it over to the tow company!
