Considering the fact a almost never drive my car in the winter & I only hand wash it (the real way - not QEW) the rest of the year, it's prob not even worth it. Oh well.

anyone see how maxima polak spoils his car...only guy i know who lets his car park on the oriental rug! i guess that is to keep her warm! i washed the car last week with the hose hooked to my laundry faucet w/ hot water turned on and the hose run to my driveway through the basement window...had washed @17*F. the pain is as others have mentioned is the car is so cold still, you end up with a sheet of ice covering the car. its time consuming to even dry it. you gotta rewet the ice with hot water to melt it then dry that spot quick...absorbers suck in the cold too. i keep saying i am going to buy a set of neoprene dive gloves (wetsuit gloves) to keep my hands warm when i am hand washing the car. usually wash it once a week...snow or not. i really do it so i have some time to my self! the wife wont follow me outside when it's that cold!

LOL! You can actually bond with your car when it's bitter cold outside. I don't want alone time under those conditions. You must be part Eskimo. You won't catch me outside anywhere near water when it's cold.
