The first thing you need to realize, is that not all LCDs are equal. It's more expensive to make wide temperature range LCDs, since TVs don't need to operate at -40, they aren't designed to.
I just checked:
Samsung's specs operating is 50 to 104 (F), storage is -4 to 113.
Phillips operating is 41 to 104, storage is -15 to 122.
My take from the manufacturers specs, if you get real sub-zero, store inside.
Then there is the entire theft thing, LCD TVs are easy to sell, so they are often stolen out of rigs (or why so many dealers don't keep the TVs in rigs)
