At least the doors closed today! Did not have to drive to work holding the door until the cabin warms up.

Haha, I'm glad those days are done!

I hadn't had much of a problem with my X350 air suspension, but after I traded it in, I went back to the dealer 2 weeks later the X350 was still on the lot and was practically sitting on the ground!

It was actually -40 celsius here last night. For you folks in the US, that's -40 fahrenheit. Enjoy your warm weather...

You all are making me happy I live in San Diego. Was just out in my car and it read 81*F ... I love cruising with the windows down during the winter. Then again a week ago it was in the 40s I have concluded that is as cold as I can handle.

Lol, thats NOT Cold......

Ok so we don't get it as bad as our Canadian friends at -40 but we do hit regular -10 or more and have seen -22 so can't really see where you're coming from.

Thats shorts n t shirt weather you lucky dawg....lol
