    Yep, cold indeed, any minute now we'll have the annual "OMG! there was a snowflake on my warning lights display. Should I take the car to the dealer?" threads.

    I once had frozen door locks and door rubbers. Once I got the lock to work I still couldn't open the door The garden hose was frozen too of course. After all that the battery was flat as well.

    Frozen web is cool.

    I could open the door - which was good.
    This is pretty normal for wher i live.
    The hose was frozen so couldn't do water, so just started it, went back inside and had breakfast, shower, did washing... Then came back out and it was defrosted!

    WOWA. That's not cold, that's death! We didn't even have that in New York in the peak of Winter on my auntie's Avalon (I don't even think the cold likes Toyotas )

    My car had a sheet of ice on Sat morning - it was funny watching my side mirrors steam - and I never thought I'd need heated mirrors!
