Minnesota is Home to a Winter Vehicle Testing Facility

When you live somewhere where it snows all the time, it is very important to have a vehicle that can withstand the challenges that winter throw at it. In Minnesota, we have to worry about the extreme cold as well as a lot of snow. I was watching TV over the weekend and one of the commercials mentioned that their vehicles were tested in Minnesota. So, I did some research and found out that we have a well-known winter testing facility in the land of ten thousand lakes. It is located in Northern Minnesota in a town called Baudette, Minnesota.

The facility is called Automotive Enviro Testing. Their website says they are, "Most comprehensive and secure low-temperature testing facility in North America." What this means, is they offer a verity of ways for vehicles and equipment to test how they would withstand the winter months. They are open year-round with professional staff to maintain the conditions. I found this to be cool, the facility is used in multiple commercials and even mentioned in a few of them. Check out this video to see how some of the tests run.

Their site says they have a variety of testing facilities available and they are as follows.
