[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 315679, member: 412"] Produce an AWD E-pickup w/500Mi range towing 5K# @ 75MPH in -20F ambient temp and you'll have my undivided attention. I don't actually see an E-vehicle as any more/less dangerous in cold weather than a modern diesel. You can do everything right including running what should be the proper fuel and if the blender, bulk fuel person, or station made a mistake, you're gelled up on the shoulder sans any heat/fans/lights, etc. I've gelled once in 12yrs and over 300K Mi of diesel pickup driving, but, that's a helpless feeling @ -20F ambient and it sputters to a stop. I typically fill my vehicle before I drive to my house from any trip as Sunday eve is typically less busy at filling stations than Thursday eve or anytime on Friday. I got caught with the wrong fuel due to an unexpected cold snap and I'm much more vigilant about using the proper fuel/additives, but, you can bet that gelling when it gets to 0F and below is always in the back of my mind.
