Just got back from Vegas and guess what..

Spoolin335 · 12-23-2008, 04:29 PM

So we went to Vegas for a week, had tons of fun and now im broke. I parked at the airport as i didnt feel like paying 100$ for a taxi, and with it being cold(-30C here in alberta) i thought i better bring a cord to plug in my car so its toasty warm when i get back.

We arrived this morning at around 5am and it was f'in cold! I get out to the Valuepark and my car is frozen solid, the seats, brakes, clutch, and shifter will hardly move. I try to start my car and it take about 5 cranks before it starts to run, and barely run! I though my car was actually going to just die it was idling so bad.

Anyways some POS cheap ass stole my block heater cord while i was gone! I couldnt believe how cheap ppl are here. I swear you can not trust ANYONE!

TIP: So for anyone plugging in your car make sure you can not unplug your cord unless you open the hood or something. Unless of course you want to lose it.

did you just acknowledge that you stole another man's heating cord?!

guilty as charged!

Spoolin335 · 12-24-2008, 01:26 AM

haha i was so pissed that i was like fuck this, someone took mine and im sure lots of ppl had theirs stolen, so i figured why not? everyone just swapping cords.

I find it hard to believe that someone stole your block heater cord in a place like Calgary. Every single friggin' car purchased in Calgary has a block heater system. They probably thought that because it's from a BMW it's better quality.

This is what parking lots look like in Calgary.

All of Canada has been hit really hard by snow this winter. I'm still thinking whether I should take the bus or drive for tommorow morning for work.

What is this? I'm guessing it keeps your battery from freezing up?
