Windshield Washers freezing
Has anybody else had a problem with the windsheild washer lines freezing up. I asked the guy at the dealer and he said that it happens, but I thought maybe he was just trying to get out of work. Its starting to become a real problem.

Buy the cold weather washer fluid (it's got alcohol in it) and don't dilute it. Normal stuff mixed with water freezes a lot closer to 32* whereas the winter stuff has a much lower freezing point. And IMHO it works better that way.
But yeah, if it's cold out your washer lines can freeze.
