Can't you guys read? Maybe the F10 will have an a$$hole gauge and you can all send out pics of yours pegged to the maximum. Love, Calvin

I went boarding this past weekend and my car looks like its frosted from the salt. I have to clean it soon. Maybe tomorrow before I go 2 SI. (Visiting the g/f's parents house).
Darn, I thought today was cold, but tomorrow, crap.

OK, for some of you guys in colder climes, this might not seem too bad, but around here, this is crazy cold. I just took this pic when I parked at the office. This is the lowest temperature I've ever seen on my e60 as far as I can recall. I know there was a thread about this last year with worse, but geez! The wind chill index has got to be -5?F or more!
PS: I know, it's warm in CA and FL, so please spare us the predictable.

I'm glad I got the winter back. Two days of zero weather was just annyoing. Enough to mess up my car.
Now it is like it should be at this time of year:

Oh damn Mel, two weeks haven't cleaned it? I haven't cleaned it for 1 month! =)

That's frickin' tropical Calvin...THIS is cold!!! 
It was -23F overnight here in MPLS, MN. -38F in northern MN, with wind chill factored in that's like -50 to -60 below!!! I went and filled up the 550 at the gas station last night. I grabbed the gas pump handle and the metal actually burned my bare hand. 
It's like dry ice!!!
And for you all you metric guys.
-16F = -26.7C
-18F = -27.8C
-23F = -30.6C
-38F = -38.9C
