Look at what greeted me this evening at Glacier International Airport. 19 deg and she started right up and slowly thawed out.

Are you pranking me?

I’ve got a guy emailing from Kalispell who wants to drive to Seattle to buy my hot water pressure washer.... To use for ice removal on roofs.

Nope. I don’t have your email, but that sounds like a good piece of equipment.

Do you ever have long term reliability problems due to starting in the cold all the time? My Subaru was super angry starting in Temps hovering around or just below 0F most of my trip up there to the frozen North. I can't imagine it would be healthy to do that every day all winter. Unless that was just a particularly cold month, abnormal to most winters.

The temperatures you experienced are pretty typical. Most people have a garage, a block heater, and use light weight oil in the winter. I think the winters are harder on the body of the car than the engine. I have a heated garage and I love it.

Time for a UOA (used oil analysis. Get with the lingo.)

Oh, it is. But man... There's gotta be something comparable locally. If this guy actually shows up I'll be pretty surprised

Don't worry, he will ask for you to send him a check and then his broker will come acquire the asset and he will pay extra upon receipt via PayPal. No phone contact though because he is on an important lunar exploration mission and so he is out of reach.

Honestly that's what I would have expected. But no he's called me twice and sent plenty of emails.... Seems like a lot of work to attempt a scam. Especially for $6000 worth of gear

A drive to Seattle and back is shorter than driving to Billings!

I use 5w/20 in my mazda and straight 20 in the outback, I’m not worried.
