Default Coldest temp your truck has seen?

Was snowmobiling yesterday and my truck registered -28 F on the drive up. By the time I got to the parking lot it had warmed up to a scorching -21 F.

It was a little chilly on the way up the mountain (I started at about 6500 ft and went up to around 9000-9500 ft), but the snow was great! Keeps it nice and fluffy with the temps like that. I would guesstimate single digit temps through out the day.

I've seen -37 F on my 01 Dodge Cummins thermometer on my way through Yellowstone Park, also on my way to go sledding!

What have you seen?

I love the snow and don't mind the cold, so I'm not complaining. Truck started right up with no problems.

Trailer pic is not at the parking lot, just picking up my buddy.

My truck has seen about 4 weeks of sustained -40F to -50F without once seeing the inside of a garage. I could actually hear the truck thank me when I finally thawed her out at the shop.

About -38degC on a few occasions. Never had a problem starting - that goes for both trucks.
