Just checked the weather for NE its going to be down to a high of 11* Cloudy with 20mph wind on Wed. F.... me it was 82* yesterday here. My wife isn't going to be happy. She probably won't let me shut my truck off for the next 2 weeks. Thank you GM for heated seats. Guess I won't bring any Biodiesel with me.

Maybe we will dodge the blizzards and ice storms this year though, but its looks like we will freeze our asses off instead. Have to dig out my ski jacket I haven't worn in 11 years.

Damn don't miss that at all in NE it usually didn't get lower then neg 10 though. Last winter here it didn't hardly get below the 60s during the day.

I've been keeping an eye on the weather for the past week it started out that temp where going to be in the high 30s. Every day the forcasted temp have dropped a little bit.

It s cold here how far northeast you going. Erie is suppose to get a foot of snow and there 2 1/2 hours away . So I can imagine what further up northeast is getting.

Had a high temp of -10 or so on the pipeline north of Williston the other day...

It wasn't what I would call pleasant by any stretch of the term.

I don't mind the cold much if its sunny and not to windy. At least they got some snow. I love snow if I have to be cold I better have some snow to play in. NE might get some more snow on Xmas so maybe I can find some drifts to bust open.:D

Well the cold isn't bad not that I have spent a lot of time in it. My truck don't like it though. Door and tailgate locks have been stiff. I gelled up big time this morning even with a double shot of Howes . Not very happy about that its one of the better ones I've seen for Biodiesel.

It was like 3* if started find not being plugged in and ran fine, but as soon as high idle kicked in it died and won't restart. 1hr with a hair dryer on the fuel filter and being plugged in and it started. I through in 1/2 a bottle of red bottle of PS 911. I guess I should of changed my fuel filter before we left. I'm still down on power even after letting it warm up a good bit. If the 911 can't get the filters freed up by tomorrow I'll probably put it in my dads shop and change them out.

I got a little stuck in my sisters driveway in my Father in laws Vue. Sucks being the only one in the family without 4wd, but sure glad he let us use it while my truck was down.

Sure was great to see family for Christmas for once though.
