ONLY -40

I don't think many have had their thermometer go that low.
Come to think about it GM probably didn't think of them going that cold.

thats true... hehe usually thats what you say because nothing ever wants to run when its that cold. Left my truck at the airport on Monday and when I got back I started it to warm it up and my back door wouldn't latch. When I went to the booth to pay for parking my window wouldn't roll back up. ugh. Tires get a flat spot on them from sitting. Pretty funny to lump along until the get rounded back out again.
