If all goes well, I will be picking up my new work truck this week which will be a Mitsubishi. I plan on using this as my everyday work vehicle here in Maine which means six months of below freezing weather. And in January, we usually get several weeks of below 0 degree weather.

What can I do to make it "winter-proof"? I plan on keeping in a heated garage at nights which should help. I will not be plowing with it and will be on packed gravel and tar roads. I am guessing I should throw some tube sand in back to help with traction.
