Dang 22 Fking degrees & my son wanted to put his new tires/wheels on his truck. FROZE my azz off.

His truck is too big to fit in the garage because of the other crap we have in there. Had to heat the lugs & use a strong Gun from AKA Member PRONTO.

I guess I was my sons age once. At 20 you don't feel NO pain to extreme Cold or Heat.

I remember working on our cars in ANY weather & it never really bothered you. But at 50 you start to feel it.

I need to Find a BIG HEATED GARAGE with a small house attached to it.

ummmmm Im 23 here and Im far to lazy to be out there in the freezing cold working on the buick :biggrin: Il wait till it kinda starts getting warm, then work on the car till the wee hours of the morning before I go doing anything in this weather :biggrin:
 
22 degrees is sweatshirt weather to me already this year. Todays windchill had to be well below 0 degrees? I spent a little time on a roof in Nashua today, not fun.
 
Glad the IR impact wrench worked out. I hope he put some antiseize on the back of the rims before putting them on. Nothing more frustrating than to have the lugs off and beat the rim off.

That's a big truck, you'ld need a commercial sized garage doorway to fit that sucker in.
The temps by this afternoon dropped to 13 with wind gusts to 45. Yup, sucks.

I kept ducking into the garage to stop that wind from blowing thru me. I am sure it was colder than 22.

I kept thinking of the MOVIE DUMB & DUMBER when Daniels stuck his tongue on the ski lift.

Not me, I was off Ledge st (Grand Ave) but there was a couple welders, a crew of roofers and a couple of our install guys up there all day. I was lucky most my work was inside.
Good looking truck by the way.

Ok then I was no where near Ledge st today. I am up in the North end.

Yeah He does have a nice Truck. That 6.0 motor hauls good. Rides nice & the magnaflow duals sound great.

funny how they want our help with something like that. my son asked for my help installing an amp in his car a few weeks back and i told him i'll supervise but i won't be doing any installing. 22 deg weather i would have told him to be careful.

In that weather, my popps would have said "your arms arn't broke" while he was in his heated garage!! "Oh by the way, don't touch my tools!! Funny, 25 years later now that I have my own auto repair buisiness he's always using my hoist and tools AND LEAVES THEM OUT!!!!
 
Come on....it's New England...stop being such a pu$$y!!!

:D :wink:

Ha I wish it was today NO WIND!.. My lower back is just getting back to feeling better from the cold. that cold creeps up your legs...

We have a place in town that you can rent a heated stalls complete with tools for $30 1st hr & 25 each additional. Should have gone there.

Well, cold weather is subsiding but lucky us, 4 days of snow. Glad I already have gas for the snowthrower.:D
