Default I love/hate winter

Except for the sweet snow and snowboarding, and ice cold air that feeds my car I hate winter. My battery has been dead two days in a row i'm assuming the cold killed it. When I got jumped today my manifold starting leaking (exhaust) and my BOV was frozen shut, wtf. So now I have to pull my turbo off and put a new gasket in and spray down my BOV with WD40. Anyone else ever have the BOV freeze shut. I just got my richened up winter map loaded in uberdata yesterday so at least the car doesn't stumble anymore but now it seems like other problems are coming to replace it. Oh well, I hope this winter is worth it. BTW, it was -5 last night, that's what I call cold.

I've got a love/hate relationship with winter as well.

I love snowskating, and driving in the snow.

I hate the cold, and the fact that I can't work on my car whenever I feel like it and that it takes forever for my car to warm up.

Winter is good for one thing only, and that's rebuilding engines and trannies in your basement.
