Usually you're right. Unfortunately we had a bit of a facepalm last year here in MN when the diesel-powered school buses wouldn't start at -10F or something. It turns out that in the state's hurry to push biodiesel on municipal vehicles, someone forgot that it gels at higher temperatures than "normal" diesel.

Thousands of schoolchildren were quite happy, though.
