Rabble rouser. :) My 300D started at 20F this morning, it took a little longer than usual - a couple spins. I think I let it glow too long. Interestingly, I had some trouble with the automatic shifting correctly on the way to work. Apparently my dilly-dallying about changing the transmission fluid was not a good thing - the symptoms are much worse in the "cold". Drove it in second and it was fine once it warmed up, really have to do that change once the weather turns again.
