RE: New to ME
Congrats!!!! You wont be disappointed Welcome to the DF...lets get some pics of that truck!
As for cold weather....here is a collection of threads winter ???'s How cold is cold?
A lot of things can effect mileage; tires, gears, load, programmers, exhaust, intake, etc. etc.
I get mid teens w/ mine running around town; but I've got larger tires & straight piped.

You shouldn't have any trouble starting it at all in them temps, might get a block heater cord for the colder days...pretty optional though
