Smile I am sick of winter!

Like the title says. I am sick of winter. My pipes froze Friday night so Saturday morning was fun. Today its cold and rainy and down right depressing.

I can't wait for the first 85* day.When I know my tires are good and warm. And I have about an hour on a late Friday afternoon and "I have to go to the store for something".

Rant off.

Tell me about it. These sub zero temperature sucks big time. Yesterday I installed the ETD on my S and I hand was freezing.... Anyway the ETD is in so I guess it's worth all the pain. I am waiting for the weather to get warmer so I am going to apply some Raammat that I already purchased and then paint my stock wheel. definitely looking forward to the warmer days.

It sucks.

I was detailing a client's 2007 Dodge Ram Friday and yesterday. Clay lube was freezing to the panels before I could even clay it. Plastic cleaner froze up inside one of the cupholders. It was misery.

Still...I think I'll take that over detailing in million-degree temperatures...

It doesnt get to 104 very often but I think I would take that over 14 any day.

Like I have said before the only thing that winter is good for is to keep some miles off the S.

Winter FTL.

Hot weather any day. I was working one day last week and it was freezing and pouring on us. I had to put bolt down some heavy armor on a vehicle and it was miserable. Im getting pelted in the face by rain pretty much hating life. It was so cold I couldnt move my fingers. On top of that you get your fingers pinched/smashed a lot and the coldness intensifies the pain. But oh well I signed up for it....

I washed my car yesterday, the water froze before I could even dry it...

And it rained today so washing it was futile...
