Well, I'm not that close - but I am 200 km north of Edmonton, Albera. I bet I'm one of the most northerly A4 owners in Canada. I'll let you guys know how my 98A41.8T performs up here this winter. Last winter, we saw -45C a couple days (not too often, but it can happen!). Bring on the snow - I'm anxious to try out the quattro!<br>Grande Prairie, Albera<br>Brent

Last year an A4 owner in Fairbanks stated that he saw a C5 Transport plane<br>being unloaded with multiple Audis on it....apparently doing some COLD<br>weather testing....<p>I don't know my geography very well...are you more north, or was he in<br>Fairbanks?<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM

Ohhh ya, Fairbanks is definitely further north - perhaps 300 miles more north. I'm not sure if they would be any colder though as they would be tempered 'somewhat' by there proximity to the ocean. Probably a very similar winter climate - although they would have a few more hours in the dark in December/January/February than me. My ave. Jan. temperatures is something like -15C day/-25C nite. That's averages, it can get worse!!!<p>

Used to live in Clagary, what heinous crime did you commit or run from to end up in GP?<p>BTW, Down here in MT we don't have numerical speed limits, the currency is worth 40-50% more, and it gets to -50 occasionally!
