Ghost cars

It has been getting below 20c at night and that means things are starting to freeze, in particular, cars. So if you have a car you have to plug it in. No they are not electric cars (9/10 cars are dodge ram pickup trucks anyway) they just have a cord sticking out the front.


You plug them into these things. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but someone told me they go in 15 minutes cycles. 15 of heating up the car so the oil and petrol don't freeze in the tank, and 15 minutes off. You'd better have snow tyres too or you'll have a fun time getting down the highway.



The funniest thing is the ghost cars. Somehow you can turn your car on with the remote from far away so it starts running to heat up. You have to do this for about 10 minutes before you actually want to drive anywhere. Cars are siting in the park park with no one in them. That will take a bit of getting used to!
