My nephew has a remote starter for his car. Would this let you thaw the car from the inside?

Depends. A lot of times the block itself needs to be thawed before it can be started to prevent damage to the motor. In a situation where there is that much ice build up on the outside of the car, chances are you'd have to use the blow dryer on the engine before you can attempt to start it.

Do batteries freeze?

Not sure on that. It's more than just the battery though. It's any exposed moving part. If your serpentine belt gets frozen and is not thawed you can crack or snap it. Either way you wouldn't be going anywhere.

Yes they can under certain conditions. Wasn't my battery but someone I know.

Sun came out today and started drying out the roads again. Now just need that light snow on Friday to be very light.

Yes it would and I've thought about spending the $300 but cheap out for the 2 or 3 times ice becomes a real problem each year. Normally I do give it 10-15 minutes to heat everything and makes cleaning all the windows easy.............. when I can get in easily. LOL

Actually this was a different than normal snow. When the surface of everything is colder than the just barely liquid rain, that's when it freezes on contact and begins layering. Neither was this a SUPER COLD at all, so the engine starting, batteries, belts or oil reservoirs was not a problem for any normal winterized car.

4:06AM and all is dark.

Right now it tends to be either warm and sunny or cold and wet. It doesn't even have the same fun as a pussy being warm and wet.
