Some folks asking about batteries and coolant You wanna run 60/40 glycol mix at minimum, 70/30 is best As for batteries, IMO any AGM battery (absorbent glass mat) is the most reliable in super cold temps.

Saskatchewan is usually pretty cold but not much -50. Happens but not a regular temp. Great advice to anyone experiencing really cold temps. Now do one om your survival pack you keep in your automobile. Mines even got food. lol 😂 Never know eh? 🙌🏻

The only thing I would add? Is change those molded on female cord ends to the hard plastic replacement units. They connect and disconnect alot easier!

How does your battery fair in 50 below? I bought a battery blanket for my old truck a few years back when Alberta was getting -40 temps and it helped a lot.

I recommend AGM battery, they seem to do well and last the longest. Some people are starting to say the new lithium kick ass, but I haven’t tested yet

I lived in Nunavut. To see how cold it was, I used to look for a raven out the window to see how much ice was around its head.

@LivinTheFringe @s_guilbeault, “fossil fuels are your friend”. Exactly.

Damn right we'd all be dead without oil. Problem being it is coming. So that's the intent. Really good tips . Thanks for sharing Yukon. Damn brutal cold.

Never heard of yellow blue orange for cords? Pretty sure they don’t have a colour code for temp. Battery blanket makes huge difference, cranks over like its summer.

Plastics have a hard time at those temps, much like your extension cord. I have never experienced -50, but at -40 lost the handle to my truck’s tailgate. Nothing wants to work at those temps.

@TKRanch Astounding! Are the Global Warming liberal priests sending out flares in the night sky in your neck of the woods? Merry Xmas to you buddy of the North.

Adding to frozen snot, I submit the freezing(and peeling) of your ear wax, and the condensation of your breath freezing your eyelashes together.
