I just tossed 4 sandbags in the back. Life is good

Also made some good kills in Black Ops 2 last night. Shwing.

Went with the Emotion XD9's in Bronze w/FREE Blue Lugnuts & Valve Stems - Also got some Center Caps uncluded! Mark @ RavSpec was easy to deal with and his pricing is awesome

I'll be wrapping them in either Falcon FK452's or Ventus V12 Evo (K110)

I don't drive my car right now but I do start it on occasion. Typically stalls the first start (within 15-25 seconds) no more starting it this winter that's for sure!

Is it garaged ? Mine is parked also in a non-insolated garage, but it fires up right away. I havn't plugged in block heater once yet, but have kept the battery warmer plugged in from time to time. I also wired in a 2/4 amp trickle charger, but have not plugged it in as of yet

LOL at myself, just noticed your car in garage in your avatar

Mine has been starting like a champ. Winter warrior status achieved!

I've park my car out in the streets and I haven't had a problem starting in the morning. The only thing I'm having problems with is downshifting to 2nd gear when its cold.

[SkAsphalt]

mm it is probably just because I have not started it in weeks. so the cold gets to it.

Ah well! it will remain parked and safe until spring.

That is a banged up SUV. what are you running for a dash cam? Can I ask how much? Pretty sweet.

I avoided that accident by staying at the gym longer after work today. Heard it slowed down ring road pretty bad

Then again that could have been any accident. Quite a few today I hear.

Saskatoon is awful. I don't know how these people manage to breath.

Ring Road is just an engineering disaster from the get go. And with the population growth over the last 10 years it can be utter kaos at times.

Lived there from 1990 to 1999, got out while it wasn't too bad

The dash cam is a BlackVue DR400G-HD II. It was around $200 shipped on ebay from a korean seller. If you hardwire it into your fuse box, you can turn on the parking mode which only turns on if it detects movement or vibration which would be pretty awesome. It's a great investment... I think.
