How is 90C [194F] for warm air intake? It's normaly around 60C [140F] the 90C temp was due to a very long steep hill. As for tire pressure that gets checked and adjusted to max sidewall 44psi, when installing snow tires, in early October when the ambiant temps are more winter like. As to avoiding driving in the dark that would require a big winning lottary ticket [odds = 14,000,000:1].
I am hoping that even though the percentage drop due to winter will be the same, the new higher numbers will mean higher winter numbers.
