Lows drop to freezing on about 160 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over. Colorado Springs averages 32 inches of snow, and road salt eats brake lines, exhaust and the underside of the car. Rinse the underbody through the winter and have the brake lines looked at whenever the car is up on a lift.

The average commute in Colorado Springs is 23 minutes each way, and 70% of workers drive there alone.
