Ford f150:cold weather tough
woke up this morning to a beautiful -20 degree day! MyTruck started with a little bit of a whine. initially the ride was stiff, and the shifting was delayed. after ten minutes, things were back to normal. When I got to the chevy dealer at which Im employed, I heard of several people with vehicles that wouldnt start, or had a low pressure light. when you look at all of the demands we put on these trucks, you have to appreciate how tough they are. I love my f150 and other than the rattle when I shut my door, this truck has had zero issues. just passed 6,000 miles.

-28 in Barrie, Ontario this morning. Not an issue for me until I decided to pop the hood and top up my washer fluid. Latch froze and I had to go to the dealer to get it lubed up (no garage here unless I drive 2 hrs to the farm). Right back on the road flyin past all the broken down Chevys
