Cold weather

I just got into my car which has been standing for 2.5 days at around 20 degree F. My shifter was so stiff moving it right to left, is my car the only one that does this or is it normal?

If you still have conventional gear lube you were trying to stir butter - synthetic gets rid of the problem.

normal if it goes away after the car has been warmed up.

My car doesn't like to start in this stuff either...wouldn't turn over for 5 seconds or so...sucked. Probably time for a new starter soon.
