This morning was a nippy -14 deg celsius (7 deg fahrenheit) I was all bundled up with my toque and gloves just to get in the car to have to remove my glove in order to turn on the seat heater since all the buttons touch sensitive. Looks like somebody wasn't thinking of the details when they designed the car.

I live in Michigan, born and raised in Michigan, so I am relatively accustomed to cold weather and crappy winters but have to ask the question... How do you live like that?

Minus 14? Pah. I passed through a place called Vilhelmina during a train journey in Sweden and its claim to fame - I think it has just the one - is that the lowest temperature ever recorded in the country was noted nearby at -53deg.

Mind you I couldn't imagine -14, never mind -53.

I'm in Edmonton Alberta and last year it was the coldest place on the planet for 1 day.

it was -53 celsius (-63.4 fahrenheit) last february. So -14 is just getting started I will really be complaining in 3 months.

Shoulda got a Range Rover. :-) I kid that would probably be horrible. Although the controls are mostly big chunky ergonomic knobs

-14 in Edmonton Alberta is just getting started. Last february we hit -53 and that day it was the coldest place on the planet. in feb-march its a constant high of -25 and low of -40ish.

I wife's Escape has a little scrolling knob for the seat heater and that works great. Yes my Fusion dash looks fancier but the simpler escapes dash works better in the real world.

DeMuro managed to convince me that a Range Rover would be a bad idea.

I just found the first link, i expect there's a better option out there for you. I assume you live in Antarctica.

Antarctica and Edmonton Alberta are very much alike. sometimes Edmonton is even Colder than Antarctica(-53c,-63.4f last February).
