Sure, it's single digits outside right now and headed south of zero tonight. Oh yea, and it's (still) snowing. I can't remember what my truck is supposed to look like! Aaargh!

We have not seen anything over 20 deg all week. This truck has been my home since Saturday night @ 5pm. We got 30 inches over the weekend and are now in the process of getting another 6-8 inches......

I'm not sure what's going on out here in the PNW with the weather......but today my dash thermometer said 58 degrees..??? I can't remember the last time we had a "heatwave" like this in January...... ...ofcourse the loss of snow pack in the mountaiins will probably bring on water restrictions this summer and ruin all the good detailing then too

Are you *****ting me.......

My temp gauge in the truck yesterday morning read - 1 degree

This morning read - 3 degrees

Its killing me not to be able to wash the truck. The outside is encased with salt and my carpet is streaked white with a calcium/salt mix.

I have felt your pain before. But not nearly enough this winter. It pays well but only when there is a reason to drop the blade.

Can you send some of that White stuff NW Wisconsin way.

Here inf South Dakota it is above 50 and they are talking possible 60's by the end of the week. We've only had about 6 inches of snow all year.

WoW... we've had more snow than you all in SD!?!? Geesh! I honestly think that we've had around 3" in the past week here in the Louisville area. Not to mention the two feet plus that we received around Christmas.

It's Murphy's Law. If it can, it will.

I went to California Speedway today for the free NASCAR open practice they held. It was sunny, and in the upper 70's. The wind was nasty, however.

Don't hate me...
