Hello all,
Had to run to walgreens and exchange something, figured id drive the Ghost see how she would do in the cold, never got warm (stayed between the n and o in normal) so needless to say had no heat. I even put cardboard in front of the Radiator. so i dont know, maybe its just too cold

How is everyone else doing

morning everyone.. one cold SOB! out there today.. roads are drifting over.. last night after the bar closed 5 of us got in a buddies truck (dodge) and went drift busting for a bit, ended up getting stuck in the middle of nowhere in a 5 foot drift. ha! we ended up sitting there for about 45min to hour waiting to get someone out to pull us out. but hey, at 2:30am not many people willing to come out in the cold and risk getting stuck themselves. haha. we got out though. good times!
