***GREAT LAKES General Discussion Thread***

so as much as I like to think my car is very rockable in the winter it isn't.

I failed this morning 30 mins to try to get 1 door open, I could get it to budge enough for my fingertips to get in the door crack. Usually i can break it free but there was sooo much Ice this morning, it f**kin beat me. I had to have my gf drop me off at work. Fukin sucked! I was 1/2 frozen solid, fingertips aching, 20mph wind at 5 degree's yeah not an ideal morning to say the least.

auto start ftw! as long as i remember to leave the heater full blast that is..

good to hear you got there safe Adrian, i'll see you next year when i drag my happy ass down there

Apparently I was on mack mode the night of the party.. My boy at work just asked me if i called that girl?
I'm like what girl the noob why the f**k would I want to call her?!
He told me i was talking to the hostess at the bar and she gave me her number... lol.. I was so pissed when i left I totally forgot. Sure enough her number is in my bag, Donna 405-**** ha ha ha..
Yo E I told Adrian I would go late spring early summer...Wanna roll out together and split the cost?

x2.. shane.
my left one was frozen shut, so it try the right, that was frozen shut too. luckly the hatch door wasnt frozen shut, and i got in that way. the layer of ice on the winshield took me another 15 minutes to scrap off. the eway packed like whoa. what usally takes me 20 mintues took me almost an hour.

 

[anfrey]

yeah my fingers still ache from tugging at it, I was f**kin frozen, out there for 30 mins, had to scrape my gf's car too, her Yaris tho, all 4 doors opened up w/zero problems, i was jealous.

 

[anfrey]

just remember, don't ever try to thaw your s**t by pouring hot water on it!!

i wonder how it went with my girl and the echo. i hope she didnt have a hardtime.

 

[anfrey]

i think it was last winter that i saw someone do that.. one time i also saw a person despretly tring to melt ice off their windshield by pouring windex on it.

Yeah the guy next to me was stuck, offered it as it helped him.

I said ok, I poured a little then was like f**k this, I'm not going to make this worse.

^refreeze is a biotch

 

[anfrey]

yeah hot water freezes faster because steam is less dense and will freeze first. it's called the mpemba effect. kinda how it's faster to make ice cubes with hot water... when it refreezes, u have created an optimal cooling system on ur windshield and ur doorjambs.

i've heard of electrical ice scrapers, but all the ones i see need to be plugged into the 12V. how the f**k do you plug it in if u cant' get in the car?!

i think i might spray some wd-40 into my door locks to keep em from freezing

 

[Hecz]

i saw a van in a ditch. anyone else see anybody off the road?
