Im actually gettting the hell out of MN.. the winters suck.. with fuel costs its getting prohibitive to heat the house.. I have a very efficient new home and its was $500 a month to heat the house..thats propane and 2000sq foot.. next year I bet prices will be 50-75% higher..
As for cars.. get a new good battery and we use lighter weight oil in the winters.. and also plug in the cars when its gets 30 below out. other wise the oil is jello and it wont crank over.
If you dont know Minnesota winters.. i wish you luck.. they suck, and this is coming froma life long Minnesota resident..
My advise is get out while you can  |
I'm orignally from Coon Rapids MN..
Winters I can handle..
I wore shorts all year around..
Try northern Canada.. ouch..
I've already got plans for a block heater and an aux battery to power it when parked and unable to plug in..
I plan on coating the frame with rust converter primer then hitting it with the bedliner.. Thats about as good as its going to get for preventing rust..
Once or twice a year I'll just go through it.
Do you live in Northern MN?
