Make sure she doesn't use any gasoline in the fuel. Every so often someone suggests it, and it is nothing but trouble and repairs for the newer diesels like yours.
I have well over a million and a half miles with diesels, and I do trust Power Service and Howes additives. The best bet if her temps are going to get near zero, is fill with #1 fuel, or at least a winter blend. As others have said, above 15 degrees, don't worry about it.
If she would happen to gel up, Power Service 911 will fix it. I have used it once and saw it liquify the gelled fuel. Do NOT use it regularly though. Only if needed. The bio blends (which I am a fan of) will gel up much faster (warmer) than pure diesel will.
