Yeah Manu,   she is freaking mess from the snow squalls,  and too freaking cold to wash her.
It's horrible here too. -5 to -15 last 3 days straight. No touches were shut until yesterday. Still only a partial clean as it instantly freezes when leaving the driers.

I'm kind of regretting living in Michigan now! This wind chill is ridiculous  :-
For sure. The cold not so bad, add the 20 mph breeze and it's brutal.

I used the quarter sprayers before the no touch and had water trails 3/4" wide by 1/2" thick freeze basically in motion across the hood. Got to spray off the salty dirt, but almost ice cacooned myself out of car.

I guess for a few dollars and cents more,will be good to stock up with the washer fluid,and make sure it says protection up to -25 and not -20 cause the the fluid that says -20 will freeze in a heart beat.

For sure. Just filled up the truck and car with washer fluid and bought both wipers ($$$ouch). Fluids on the SHO were the consistent unchanged status, but the truck was low on coolant slightly and power steering fluid. Every tire on both vehicles had lost at least 2 psi with the truck having one at 20 psi (weird). Starting to think the squeak on the truck is either the power steering pump or bearings for the fan, as I damaged one of the blades when changing the water pump. These flashes of frigid weather stink but definitely warrant checking the vitals.

Lucky you. The old lady took the boys and their cousin to the skate rink yesterday while I watched the games. She didn't get back until after dark or I would've left playoff football to wash it up.

Ha everyone was at the do-it-yourself car wash yesterday, got to wash the exterior, vacuum and treat the leather interior just in time for it to snow hours after I finished! Had to take advantage of that 32 degree weather!!

The Edge looked more like Celtic Salt grey than carbon metallic before the rains.  Time to find an open touchless CW ...

If I remember correctly, it needs the downpipe removed to do so.
