FWIW, I'd also see if you can get the grill cover...helps immensely with helping the engine warm up to initial temp and helps build up enough heat in the coolant to warm the cab just that much faster.
....and it is really nice when you'll encounter freezing rain, heavy snow, and blowing dry snow all in the space of 48 hours (such as Los Anchorage over the past little bit).
Thats a good idea thanks. I'll look into that. Lacking that I still have some white coroplast left from insulating the underside of my trailer. That should do the trick too.
It seems you guys with the older Diesels all got heaters and cords...it occurs to me that since the newer engines are so much easier to start in cold weather maybe this has to do with their decision to eliminate the cord. It used to be if it got a bit below freezing an older diesel had trouble waking up.
Thanks for all the replies it is appreciated (even the angry one)
