I don't have a block heater on either one of my trucks, and starting up the Dodge this morning was quite a chore.

It's probably about -4 right now, but it's still too damn cold.

 

There not to bad in the f150, there frozen what do you expect lol

Ya im glad its finals week here, we went snowmobiling this morning and for being -28°F it didn't feel to bad....

 

After I bought my 99 Ranger I noticed a plug hanging down form the engine compartment, I was like "WTF." I got the truck new from a dealership in Atlanta, I had no idea what it was because down here in the south thats not common except for diesel trucks. I had to look in the owners manual to make sure it was an engine block heater...lol I just didnt think a truck destined for Georgia would have one, but it did...lol

 

Up here if a vehicle doesn't have the block heater where like "WTF" haha

 

Mine are hemorrhoid causing cold but not much stiffer :P...... i know what you mean, its been cold up here lately

 

The ford dealer where i bought my truck told me that all fords in Canada now come with a block heater as part of there "built for life in Canada" promotion not sure about down there though

 

If I start seeing Hybrid parking only spots mine is hanging out the front bumper enough to say thats where I plug it in... LOL

 

That's a little cool. I was up in Maine on Christmas and it got down to -30*F w/ -80*F windchill.

 

-18F with 25mph winds sure looks a lot like a F-150 with a skidoo on a trailer to me. LOL

-30F and below is when I plug my Ranger in. Nothing like typical -40F weather to freeze stuff up.

 

We haven't had any extreme cold days yet...i fear that cold is making its way eastward. we got the snow,but it's stayed relatively mild so far...

 

It was really cold here today. It is chillin right at 1 right now. Really windy.

 

its in the 30s here, but thats cold enough to make the starter sluggish with the 20-50W, so i may plug it in tonight.

 

we're not too bad here.. it's about 20 out right now... wind storms are supposed to come through tomorrow and get us down to -10~-5 with the wind chill, which isn't too bad compared to you guys.

sucks though becuase i think i'm supposed to be working on a roof tomorrow, lol. bring on the wind burn! lol.

 

Couple years ago at my house it was -20f(coldest the thermostat would go) and i road my sled doing 50+mph across fields with a snowmobile suits and gloves. No heated helmet or gloves. Talk about cold my throttle on the sled froze 5 times before i got back home with it. Ran good but i was freezing and my goatee got frozen to my helmet. God the good old days. Also there was 5-15mph wind gust that night too.

 

HAHAHA got a chuckle outta that....
