Sometimes I close the driver door; never the other one.

I'm amazed at how you guys/gals deal with extreme cold; just don't understand why you live there.

One winter in Chicago a long time ago, convinced me I don't want any part of that.
I don't like living in it either but just up and moving takes a lot more than just up and moving. There is a lot going into leaving

The teens and you needed 6 layers of clothes?


I would of wore cold gear under my long sleeve shirt that's it. If it was really windy also I might of put my jacket on.

You guys are all working too hard or you are all fat if you don't need 6 layers in the teens.

I wear 2 thin under armors a long sleeve T, with a short sleeve over it and then a UPS long sleeve with a standard UPS rain jacket over it. And then when night falls I add another thick under armor.

So fat and working hard are the only two Options.


Maybe you're just a P* when it comes to cold weather. All of that madness would easily cover me to the negative teens.

6 layers on top and 2 on the bottom? You are clearly overdressed.

It was in the single numbers here all day yesterday. I had my UA tops and bottoms, two pairs of socks, LS shirt, pants, coat and hat. I don't wear gloves. I was very comfortable.

Do you get splits on your fingertips? I do, even with a ton of lotion. So I wear thin mechanics gloves that allows me to use
the DIAD.

I think they were in the 1st catalog I looked at when I started driving. I think it was $80, so I passed. Now I regret it.
