I am in Ontario. Where are you located?

In a normal winter it will go below 0F at night for maybe 2 weeks at a time. -30 on several different days, the coldest I have seen is -40(F or C). I use block heaters on my cars almost all winter. If you lose heat in your house its pretty critical since the pipes will all freeze within 30-36 hours if its cold out.

We have probably the biggest temperature range of any where I have seen, the temperature will occasionally hit +100F in the summer. This summer it was mid 90's for several weeks which is pretty hot for here.

Normally the Buick is off the road all winter, but once I had the Buick out one time at -20 and totally clear roads. It was cool, the Scanmaster gives up on the air temp sensor below +10F, it just blinks. I had to turn the boost down somewhat to prevent knock. Spool was instantaneous, it drove just like a N/A motor, it was so weird compared to July and humid when it feels so soggy.
