Lucas Extreme Cold

Does anyone use Lucas Extreme Cold with anti gel? How does it compare to Diesel Kleen in the white bottle?

I had never heard of it before either. A buddy of mine just showed me a bottle he picked up to try. He has been using Lucas for lube in his fuel and Diesel Kleen in the white bottle for anti gel. NAPA has him convinced that he needs The Lucas in his fuel. I have always used Diesel Kleen in my truck. I was just wondering if anybody had an opinion on the Lucas with the anti gel in it.

I use it. Regular Lucas down to about 25f, then winter bend below that. Rarely below -5 here but never had a problem. It does smooth out the idle. I know some use an extra dose if its well below 0.
