In an old book about the development of the Prudhoe Bay Oil Field in Alaska, it was called Alaska Crude if memory serves, they described having to burn fires beneath the oil pans of their trucks to unseize the moving parts because the oil had frozen solid.
EVs seem obviously superior in this department, at least when it comes to cold enough temperatures to freeze engine oil.
