Same here. It was -47° . I wish I had somebody cuddle with on the coldest nights and just watch some Netflix.

In very cold climates,a stick on heater for the oil pan plugged into an extension cord, will keep the oil nice and thin for a quick start. Dipstick heaters work the same way. If the vehicle is in a garage,a 100 watt bulb under the hood,plugged in, and turned on will keep things ready to go.

Got down to -20 yesterday, not counting wind chill. I've been holed up since Mon. eve. and came out for the first time this evening. Just too cold for Tue., Wed., and most of today. Mail service was suspended yesterday. I'm grateful that I have a condo with an underground indoor garage for my car. Best investment I've made in years.

It's the same here or at least was for 3 days, I like the Snuggle idea

Illinois is much the same.

Hot coffee, with just a wee bit of Janieson's Irish Cream!

Shelled out a $K last week on my starting issues.. -36 this morning.. fired up without a hitch??

My snuggling issue, however, remains unsolved. Even my cat abandoned me last night. ??

"Car won't start."...answer: install (or have installed) an, "Engine Block Heater." But, you need access to an electrical outlet.

I can’t even imagine those temperatures! We are struggling with single digits! Stay inside! Good luck with finding the cuddle buddy ?
