Sluggishness normal with temp?
Last night it got down to about -12 but my truck was inside my shop that was about 40 this morning. On my way to school this morning, about 0 out then, when ever it would shift into OD, it was like I was drive a 4 cyd. After about 25 miles, acceleration seemed to be back to normal. It only took the motor about 5 miles to get up to normal opperating temp but for the other 20 miles it felt like I was pulling a house. Think this jet has to do with the fridged temps?

Your EBPV may be still closed up on you and making your truck to bog down until it gets up to temp. Plus your tranny fluid is like molasses so your tranny needs to get up to temp as well. If you have an EGT gauge, you'll see your gas temps also be very high.
Heheh
I feel bad driving the poor girl around in the morning. Only 2 more months left though
