This is my first winter up here and I put a battery heater and a oil pan heater on my fusion and it started up just fine everytime all the way to -45
I learned to always park manual vehicles and leave the shifter in netural because one time when it was -45 my manual transmission would not shift into netural so I had to sit with my foot on the clutch for like 10 min till the thing warmed up enough to let me through it out of gear.
I did not have a block heater in any of my vehicle's just an oil pan heater and as long as i plugged them in they would start fine.
