    Re: Show me how cold it is

    It was +9 F when I went to work this morning and you're going to have to believe me because I didn't take a pic. I'm pretty sure that is the coldest it has been all winter in Virginia. I definitely feel for you Midwest guys because 9 degrees is F'in cold. The worst I've been in is -12 when I was visiting my buddy in CO and was snowboarding. THAT stings the nostrils.

    Re: Show me how cold it is

    No picture, but does anybody else have a problem with their trunk getting frozen OPEN when it gets 20 degrees F or colder? Currently anybody in my apartment complex could rob me blind and it's pissing me the hell off.

    Reading before posting FTW:

    P.S. It was -4 degrees here today via The Weather Channel, since my Audi failed me.

    My car doesn't have a 20 gallon tank. The most I have ever been able to put in even after it said 5miles to empty was 17.79 gallons so I dunno I guessed it had 18 or so gallon tank.

    It went on when I blew a tire on a pothole, and now there is the spare on. I didn't bother reseting the tpms cause its so cold and didn't know if there was even a sensor in the spare

    You should not let your tank go that low on fuel. It's in the owners manual.
