Hey guys. Living in new england sucks for me seeing as im riding stock.. but its the season and its colder everyday. The problem is when i start her in the mourning it takes a decent amount of time to warm up as far as the tranny and interior air. It takes almost 30 minutes to get her to where it runs on a normal summer day. Maybe im just over paranoid of stuff, but im thinking something might be wrong. Any advice?? Its a 97, and i personally think its funnier going 5 mph than 55, but id like to see if i can get it fixed. Thanks again. and i do let it warm up until atleast half way of the middle.

I'm from NE, and you've got it easy compared to Kentucky! Talk about freak'in cold/snow and general discomfort.......crappiness.......

You're thermostat is probably STUCK in the OPEN position, simply remove and replace.........if that somehow is'nt the problem, a pcs of cardboard in front of the rad. will help big time, blocking air flow.

PS: Nice title: "Sluggishly Fashonable"
