Yeah, I agree. I was raised in one of those places where cars are never shut off during winter and a stalled car on the highway was a almost 100% death. It was 20 years ago when diesel fuel basically froze in fuel lines even on a 24/7 running car. Folks mostly used a Japan gas cars, not diesels. Also diesels couldn't heat a cabin during that low temperatures. Everyone had Webastos. But I agree, technology changed and maybe diesels are more popular now in those places
