The Escape starts fine after sitting for 6-8 hours in -35C and colder weather. That's after I realized sometime earlier this month that I don't have a block heater :( Damn USDM models!

A lot of dealers didn't know this and subsequently ordered lots of inventory without block heaters ... bet there's lots of people driving '08 and '09 Fords calling their dealer to find out where the (nonexistent) plug is.
