My truck was an ice cube this morning and I had to pry the drivers side door open to get in it.

Crazy down here, one day it's in the high 70's and the next day drop's in the 30's with a lot of wind. Don't know how you guy's can put up with all that snow and ice. I'm still mowing the lawn in between these little cold front's!!
