Never worked much down there..... I did a few things near Carrizo Springs but only for about 3 or 4 months. Been up here in the Bakken for over a year and the cold isnt bad.... You get used to it. Haha

 

 

Truck deff prefers warmer weather. As yesterday it bearrrllllyyyyyy cranked.... But its weird.... My 15 work truck struggled and i use it everyday. All day...... But my personal 14 doesnt get started forba week and cranks right up.... What gives?? Both are gas so its not like the 15 2500 is a diesel..

trucks are little slower when its cold outside -25 temp. not counting wind chill . just like the human body, you move slower. They even play football outside up here - Minnesota / Wisconsin

We play futbol (soccer) here almost everyday... Just not yesterday.... 15 below was a touch cold. Tho today its 25 above so we are already making bets haha

 

These trucks dont like the cold much because my colorado that ia tuned, among all the other crap that is done to it, loves the cold weather.

 

Is it just the tuning that makes these trucks feel sliggish..... Or is it like its too cold sobit hurts performance?

It is likely just congealing due to the temp as petroleum based lubricants of higher viscosity tend to do lol. it's closer to vaseline at those temps instead of oil. hahahhahaha

Wow -30!!!. We are having a cold snap this week and it's only in the mid 60's today and I had to wear long pants. Thankfully that heated steering wheel saved me this morning on the way to the gym.

60? hahahahaha. We wear shorts in 60! working in a mine in northern ontario a while back it was -64F. Trucks don't start at -64! lol and diesels sound like they are going to come apart
