ORIGINAL: skytanker2003

If you live in a place that is really, REALLY cold, get an autostarter and a block/oil heater. Very, VERY good investments. I'm glad I have my autostarter, cuz it got so cold that the snow crystalized, and turned to powder, but the moisture from my warm car the night before, froze on the INSIDE of my windshield! That's *ssbackwards, going out to your car and scraping ice off the INSIDE of your windows!!! North Dakota S.U.C.K.S!!!
I hear ya there, but that happenes to me almost everyday in the winter it is common to see cars running with no one arround for about 10-15 minutes to let the ice on the inside of the car to melt., and here it consistantly get to about -25C, or -30C (-13, or -22F) on a daily basis, and that is a high. at night... i dont even want to talk about it[:@][:@] I Hate WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

$79 for rustproofing... is that a good price? seems high to me but I guess I have no idea what it should cost.
