| So... Washed the car today... I think all I did was ice over all the snow under my car... It feels like it weighs an extra 1800lbs. |

Always good for traction! :D
Now you need to find a hotel with a heated parkade, find out what time the kiosk operator leaves, go in have a meal and a beverage over the course of an hour or so. In the mean time your car is thawing out. Works like a charm! Free heated parking whle you eat FTW! :D

Coast Plaza Inn on Gateway Blvd just north of the Whitemud.
The Kiosk operator leaves aroound 9:00 pm ish.
There are two levels to take your car into. I prefer the bottom one near the back as there is almost no one there. :D
Chromey also had a good idea too, but you still have to pay for the parking. :D

Yeah. I'll just tell my boss to build a heated garage on the back pad, so that I have somewhere to melt the fucking snow off the underside of my car. I'm sure he'll jump right on that. |

But you don't have to sit around like a douche eating a sandwich in your car for an hour ... which often isn't long enough to melt everything out. Parking is usually only a couple of bucks in the evening. With movie prices being cheaper at that theatre it balances out. |

If I remember, parking at the mall downtown is quite cheap on the weekends as well. Like a couple bucks.
LOL I think Mike meant he goes into the hotel for lunch and a drink, not eating in his car in the parkade.
:rofl: |

Mikes about saving money so he would bring his lunch and eat it in the car. :lol:
I washed my car last night only in time to get dirty again. I must have had 100lbs of snow in the wheel/wheel wells and under the car. My pulsing steering wheel is all gone.. lol :thumbup: |

exactly!!! Why would I sit around like some douche in the parking lot eating my lunch/dinner. :lol:
Mind you that would be funny, on the other side I have gone in and done some "maintainence" on my car there when it is too cold, ie) Change bulbs, clean it out. :lol:
