Subject:Beware- plastic is like glass in these subzero temps...
Date:Sat, 22 Jan 2005 16:28:46 EST

here in SE PA its 8 degrees and snowing hard... i got in my audi and start it
up to move it for the snow plows...and CRACK!!  the dash cracked, right
before my eyes because of the subzero temps...  i was very bummed..my interior was
mint condition before..
i hate this weather...plastic gets so brittle..   the trans was so hard to
shift into gear because the tranny fluid was so thick from the low temps..and i
got a low oil PSI warning light because the oil was so thick also...

make sure youre careful out there.. let your cars warm up before you hop in
and go.. and drive carefully.those of you in the Northeast....we're getting
HAMMERED... supposed to get 10-15" of the white stuff at last report..
