If the car is a rental, ask if they've installed a head-bolt heater and ask how and when to use it. That all should be something you're doing regularly anyway :) Probably want to check your belts and hoses too. Other things to do if it's your own car (if it's a rental, ask when you pick it up) - check the wipers and fill the wiper fluid check the air tire pressure check your anti-freeze and check the oil (replace with lower viscosity as extreme cold makes oil thicker). Certainly don't leave your lights on without the engine running. Plus, you'll need more amps to crank over an engine in the cold. At 0-5F, a fully charged battery has only about half the capacity of its rating. Are you driving your own vehicle, or is it a rental? If it's your own, then check the battery before you go and replace if needed. Yes - extreme cold will kill a weak battery. ![]()
