umm lets see today in dallas it was below freezing, and i was in shorts and a sweatshrit with sandals. In a pos old lexus without heat or defrosters. And my rolled over jeep got a bunch of snow in it. The beauty of an offroad only wrangler. I really wish it was colder in texas though, To the poster above my dad went to dartmouth college. Absolutely beautiful up there. I try to get up there as much as possible. Your a lucky man.
