An inch thick on the hood and roof. A hard 1/4 inch or more on the windows. My sister gave me one of these Frost Guard things, but I've never used it since I park in the garage. I'll give it to you if you're interested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRacer Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Frost guards are amazing. Would have never known about them until my wife picked one up for me a few years ago. Now I'm hooked. Her common sense levels far exceed mine so yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents house in Allentown has a three car garage and their house in Arlington VA which is 200k more has a one car garage. Talk about a downgrade.

Schif Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 My Frost guard changed the game. Toss it on, throw on the mirror covers and just kick back and don't worry about any of that scraping nonsense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I may have to invest in one for our spare car that sits outside because we had a have a dining room that we never use instead of a three car garage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMSKI Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Wow i didn't know the Frost Guard was such a widely respected accessory. I thought it looked kind of gimmicky. I should have tried to sell it on eBay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I also thought it was silly but I got one for Christmas and my mom kept asking how I was liking it so I decided to stop lying and actually use it one night. Well I guess it's true that your mom is usually right. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillycore Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I used a plastic tarp back in the day when ice storm was coming but found it to be a pita to fold up and went back to just warming up the car and scraping.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, today it would have because I'm dumb and started with the windshield instead of doing the smart thing and letting that melt with the defrost while I chipped the ice off the hood and roof. I normally just let it run to melt, at least to the point where the large scraper/squeegee clears it easily. But today I had to clear all that ice off the rest so I didnt kill someone if it blew off on 378 or 309 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momskeeztoo Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I hate when that happens. Even worse when lazy people don’t clean off their car. Jerks. I saw someone yesterday who only had half the windshield clean. Guess he figured he only had to see what was in front of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Crazy amount of birds migrating this morning. This went on for ~5 minutes and they were super loud squawking and because of how many their were you could hear their wings flapping. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
