Tips for Driving a Diesel Truck in Cold Weather
Did you know that you'll go farther per gallon with diesel fuel? These days, diesel is readily available at most gas stations. Follow these cold weather tips when you’re behind the wheel of our diesel rental trucks.
- Always park your truck out of the wind.
- When refueling, seek a station that treats their fuel with a cold weather additive.
- Turn off all lights to allow batteries to maintain a full charge. Cold weather decreases the battery output.
- If the temperature is below 10 degrees Fahrenheit, repeat the “wait to start” process three to four times before starting the engine.
