Could be a ton of things, truck started and drove fine. Going to be very cold here for several days I'm sure it will return to normal when the temps improve by mid week.

Did you get a block heater installed? Can’t get them in the US! I’m 45 miles south of Alberta, planning a trip to Medicine Hat to pick 1 up soon?

Block heaters are standard in our part of the world, be a tough winter without them
