Good lord, does everybody live in igloos up there too?

NO, we don't all live in igloos. They melt in the summer. Hey, we don't have near the aftermarket for filters and stuff here because we don't have the Magnuson-Moss act to protect us. We are encouraged to use factory stuff until the warranty period is over or we may null/void our powertrain warranty.

And then some. You guys south of the 49th are lucky to have a huge aftermarket industry and a powerful organization like SEMA. Helps keep big brother out of everything.

Yeah we live in igloos and the oil is bottled up as it comes out of the drill up in the north pole ... That explains the big chunks of ice that melts in the bottles to make the oil more fluid depending on what it is 5w30, 10w40 etc ... :p

Actually Canadian motor oils are carefully blended to best accommodate our extreme climate conditions, and may contain a percentage of rendered whale blubber, baby seal oil and/or polar bear fat. The actual percentages are a closely guarded Inuit secret.

back into my igloo.

Lol!

I mean we have an ok choice when it comes to oil and spark plugs, but the items I wanted are only sold in Obamaland.

I wanna thank you all for the Autolite DP recommendation. I saw numerous threads on here with many of you praising that plug as being excellent for the 3.7. Can't wait to pop em in.
