When your car does not want to start because it's too cold, then it's ok to complain. This should not happen above -20 Celsius. When it hits -20 Celsius (excluding wind), then it gets nasty, more so if there's wind.


I am pretty sure you're not allowed to complain about cold in Miami following this law :p

What if my car was running on corn juice? Corn juice tunes tend to have trouble with cold starts. I'm sure I'm not the only one complaining.

No. You're never allowed to complain. It's Florida. All the weather in the 20s during the winter here in NorCal was worse, and even that wasn't that bad since we didn't get snow or dip below 0. :P

Boost feels really strong in the cold. Snowflake means ice is a possibility. Or something like that anyway. Dad's hummer said that the same morning lol.

Sounds good. Although, that would be about 80 degrees for each?
