Sparky87k5 remarks on a diesel bear repeating............
Diesels hate cold weather and "other than the ability to "boondock", (dry camp) for long periods of time" will require some sort of 120volt power for block heaters in either a diesel or gas engine.
I have heard this rumor before. We have only had our diesel truck in temps as cold as -35 deg F and have had no problems starting.
At what temps did you have trouble with your diesel?
We do not use the block heater or any fuel additives (winter blend is already at the pumps in winter)...not needed.
To the OP...if it is just 1 person I would seriously consider a Northern Light or Bigfoot for this type of duty.
Good luck, once you figure out the details a TC should work great for you.
