Ambient temperature
« on: August 21, 2012, 09:15:21 AM »
Does the ambient temperature guage read into the minus's?
although it's supposed to be tropical up here have seen a couple of '0' on the gauge.
Does it show a minus symbol down there in Canberra and other southern regions.
Other news. Clocked the 100,000km on a run the see Mr and Mrs Diesel for brekkie.
Never under estimate the predictability of stupidity.

You don't have to go to Canberra.  I saw -2o out near Warwick a couple of weeks ago.  Yep, minus temps are standard on ST guages.   :-[

Thats one reason I don't want to have a temperature guage on the ST around here :)  My car has one that is pretty accurate, and it rarely goes into the -c temperatures probabaly due to the road being a bit warmer than where air temperatures are measured.  At night it can get down to some -5c or lower

That's a fair distance to travel for breakfast! My limit's about 5 miles.

Must've been 3 eggs at least.

5 Miles hasnt even got down the drive way here, let alone to a coffee shop. We have to carry 20 litres just to get to the service station to top up the tank.



OK, enuff drift   :spank
