RW> 8^) I had to stop in the ice and sleet (December) to change a flat tire

   RW> no gloves. Believe it or not, you sweat even while working in the cold.   
      
   Yes, sounds like fun.  :)   
      
   Back when I drove my 80' Malibu, I remember several times getting off work   
   only to have it not start.  Most of the time it would not only be cold, but   
   raining too.     
      
   Laying under the car in work cloths using a pipe to smack the starter was   
   loads of fun.  After the third time this happened, I decided to replace it in   
   the cold instead of waiting for a nice warm day.   
      
   Each year in the fall I try to do a routine check of the vehicles and just   
   take a look at everything.  I try to fix things before it gets cold.  The   
   problem is, most of the issues that crop up can't be detected by just looking.   
      
   If that was the case, I would have replaced the radiator in the Durango before   
   it failed causing the antifreeze to get into the transmission.  No warning   
   signs at all on that one.
