I think that the truck in question is KCASTUN's; he had posted that video a while back, in comparison with a Dodge in the same weather.

That's right , click on "view other videos from this user" and you will see my dodge video , and it was a fair battle , both trucks had sat ALL night NOT plugged in ( you can see the ford in the backround of the dodge vid), and neither of them had been run , look how long I sit in my truck waiting for the oil pressure to come up... it was COLD. Anyone who wants to argue otherwise , get on a plane and get here , supposed to be cold tonight

Funny that you say that- when I played it, my hound started barking at the computer.
Maybe she thought it was me starting up my EX??

Unfortunetly for any 6.0L owner, with pressurized oil driving the injectors, and way up on the top side of the engine at that, it's a loosing battle trying to get enough rail pressure built up to get the injectors to push enough fuel at those low temperatures. Consider a block heater mandatory with a G2 injection system/Ford 6.0.
