On Friday, My L comes off of the street and into the garage for 3 months. We are expecting rain and snow on Fri with snow on the weekend.. going from highs in the low 60's to highs in the low 30's starting next week.. Yes, winter is arriving now for those of us in Erie, PA.. now to start driving the winter beater for at least a 3-4 month period. :vomit:
At least it will give me time to take my time to get a few things done to the truck.

I was perusing my copy of Grassroots Motorsports, and stubled on an ad for Evans NPG+ waterless coolant, www.evanscooling.com. So far, most of the googling I've done produces alot of positive things about the stuff, especially in the area of improved heat transfer and elimination of any sort of boiling.

Anyone ever try this on our trucks?
