    A few snow pics

    Today was my day off. Got to take out my 15 ES I gave my fiancé today. God was it nice to have my leather and more comfy seat. ( the 17 is an ES as well ) and not have to shift gears Lol.
    Plus the bluetooth in the 15 is better.
    Got to drive in the snow with both cars. The manual goes a little better than the 15 with the cvt but both are quite efficient in the snow.

    Too bad they were both filled with summer washer fluid by the dealer. May explain why my Bosch winter blades iced up Saturday. And I chewed Bosch a new one Saturday I am starting to miss my old used clunkers. At least I knew what I had

    Well, if incorrect washer fluid is the worst of it then it's not too bad. Take a hair dryer and thaw the tank then pump it out and replace.

    Did the 17. Will work on the 15 when I get home. The point is i paid for vehicle prep. They should have been prepped.

    Sorry folks. Just a bad day. I chewed the poor service manager out. Told him to throw that blue water out and spend $3.00 a gallon retail like I do for the deicing -35° wiper fluid. Gotta beat 2 tows if I called corporate. Imagine that conversation between corporate and dealer..
    Corporate : hey dealer. We just got a call to tow 2 newly purchased cars because the washer fluid is frozen in the lines and that's a safety issue.
    Care to explain why it's above zero in Boston and the owner can't use his wiper fluid?

    Dealer: uh umm.... Blue water is cheaper?

    Corporate: ya you pay the $450 we just spent to tow the 2 cars under warranty due to a safety issue that could have been prevented by $6.00 retail worth of fluid when the owner paid you for a vehicle prep.......

    Ya. About sums it up. I bought a certified pre owned and a brand new car so I didn't have to be wrenching on cars in January... And yet here I am.....
    So ya.. My bad. I love my cars. Just not loving the lack of attention to detail.. ESPECIALLY on the 17 with 500 miles. Still gotta bring it in for that loose exhaust and brake woosh
