Shouldn't be much of a problem. Give it a shot.

It might be mad at you for not driving it much, but that's about it!

Good Idea keeping it plugged in even if everything works perfect for cold starts it' save your batts acables and starter by turning over an engine thats warm.

of couse you could do the famous indian diesel dance, get naked (if there is snow it's better) smear yourself with used grease or motor oil dance wildly falling often(in the snow) and(while holding a bottle of diesel Kleene in one hand and either in the other) chant over and over PLease start,please start,please start,

However don't over do this, you could get the truck laughing so hard it has to calm down to start

Either that or it would start on its own to get you to stop.
