I have started my truck in -20f (just yesterday) and it wasn't plugged in at all, cycled the glow plugs and it started right up, This isn't recommended because it is hard on the engine, but I was in the mountains and I didn't have my cord with me to plug it in

this is a good idea, you don't need to leave it plugged in over night, just an hour or so before you leave to get the coolant warmed up a little so the truck turns over easier

Wouldn't have helped me anyways the hotel we were at the parking was under the rooms, parking is at a premium in the small resort town we were at

The one in mine says 900w. When we had those two weeks of constant below zero I would leave mine plugged in all night and it would be at operating temp in the morning. I found out it does start very easy (like 4 revolutions and its running just rough) at -10 with no grid heaters or block heater, very happy about that. The night before I plugged the truck in but not the cord going to it in the house.
