I have actually started my truck in 47 below temps.

The reason I quoted your post is im curious what you run in your pickup?

I have been running Rotella 15-40. I was concerned about cold starting lubrication or damage from the lack of lubrication in cold starting weather. The Dodge owners manuel says that 10-30 is okay to run but suggests 15-40, there must be a reason.
