Went to enterprise and rented a car that had literally 4 leaking tires and they filled them all up to 55 psi before handing the car over. This photo was taken after the 30 minute drive home.

Called and took the car back in for service only to get the same car, same 55 psi on all wheels, and same major leak in the rears. Went to another enterprise location to get a normal car instead 2 days later. Really took me back to my first car, but it’s a lot less fun when it’s not even yours and the “fix” is just dangerous overpressure.

    Yes. Water is most definitely not rated for sub-freezing temps.

    Though the stronger stuff helps clear ice off your windshield faster…especially on those mornings when you’ve got that smooth sheet of ice that doesn’t want to be scraped.

      I… People actually put water in the wiper fluid tank?

      I feel like I’m too “I live in a ‘cold-ish’ place” to understand this but

      Is this a thing in warmer climates?

      I really just mean temperature rating. There’s different properties sure, but even the regular winter stuff freezes over if you live somewhere cold enough. You really need the right concoction for the right climate.
