h/e winter time! too cold to change!

okay boys, looks like I'm going to have to drive my ss in the winter (which I'm fine with I guess...) but I don't want the water wetter and water mixture to freeze. I was thinking putting some alcohol in there as well to help it from freezing, because frankly, I'm not going to change it right now it is FREEZING out. anyone have any problems with this?

I was just asking, if I add isopropyl alcohol to my filler neck will it help against freezing? I would think so, but not sure if the concentration of alcohol vs water wetter and water is great enough.

See no benefits of using anything but, and if there is I'd love see proof/data logs of such.
