Yes I got my first "DING" in the middle of summer, 5am while driving through a deep valley. Pretty cold in Calgary, Canada, isn't it

And it keeps dinging every now and then when I go out early in the morning ever since.

Well! I never! So this morning I climb into The MINI and guess what!? I got dinged!

37 degrees as I motored down the road. Hah! I got dinged and flashed! Only problem is that I don't want to be dinged. It's way to early to be 37 degress!!

East of Cleveland, Ohio here. I think I must be close enough to Lake Erie that I'm still "dingless" as of now. Was down to 41 this morning...

Thank you, thank you, thank you

I thought I was going crazy, or there was something wrong when it dinged and the temp was flashing!

Had the first ding the evening I picked the car up in March. My wife was taking a turn at the wheel around our neighborhood (Dunwoody, GA) and we got the ding...and laughed
