Default Out for spin!!!!!

This may not be a big deal for most of you, but living here Ontario Canada and having no snow on the ground or little sand and salt on the road for this time of the year is unreal.When I put the caraway inlate Oct I didn't think it would see the road until late April.Can't wait for spring.

Brandontlyer65, we should have aless2 feet of snow by know.Its hard ot beleive that in the summer we can have a high of90 F and than in Jan have a temp of - 4 F . But today it was 48 F and it looks like we could be at this temp for a couple of weeks. Yes there is Gobal Warming for sure atomsk680, in Feb 1987 I want winter camping( yes in tents)it hit a record low of - 56 F now that was cold.

I love global warming, I am about the only immigrant or new zealander that doesn't give two shytes about the environment. I took the cats off my 94, my dads 5.0 explorer, so on. I highly doubt this winter is due to global warming tho, fist off the world goes through changes in climate every few thousand years, secondly, the only reason this winter is like this is because the jet stream or something is pushing the colder air more north into canada. but, screw the environment, i am not changing my lifestyle just for the environment.

Same here. It was 60 yesterday so I figured it was a good time to see if I hooked up my battery tender correctly! Started right up then drove for about 10 miles (before the rain hit) to give the tires a little workout. Put in a tad more than a gallon of gas and she's back in winter storage.

I had assumed it would go away in October and come out in late April ... but so far we haven't had any snow and it's been about 50 all winter. Err, is it winter? Hard to tell with all the warm weather, no heating bills and green grass that I had to have mowed.
