Darn We only made it to -18 below last night ( not counting wind chill) because the clouds moved in and warmed it back up What did surprise me was that out trucks over head could read to -15 below zero. Does anyone know what the lowest temp it will show on the over head?

NY it only got down around me to about 1-2. Also, speaking of the overheads, would it be possible to install one in my 2000 ram if it didn't come with it? I wouldn't mind getting one of them.

Woke up to -18 here in Southern Central WI. Truck fired right up (I did plug it in for a few hours), then after a while started surging up and down, then died, won't re-fire. Probably a plugged fuel filter, I haven't changed it in a while, probably plugged with wax (I run Drew's winter brew since it's turned cold) and I get to learn my lesson the hard way tonight.
