The manual says we need a grill cover below 32 degrees F. I haven't found one that is for the 2019. Called our local dealer and they there is nothing in the parts catalog....

It doesn't get near cold enough where you live to even worry about it. If you are at 20 degrees for weeks on end then I would get one.

We expect to be throughout the Rockies with it. We will see some 20ish nights, and likely lower.

Lived 10 years in Colorado and never used one. Truck will warm up a little quicker with it but if you can't find one don't lose sleep over it, it will work fine. Or stick some cardboard in the like sanda said. Or plug in the block heater over night.

I completely forgot about this but doesn't the 2019 have the new active grille? That's probably why you can't find a grille cover, the shutters will close automatically in the winter so not needed. Probably just didn't update the manual to reflect that.

Active grille... who knew. Certainly not the people at the dealership I called, and certainly not me. That's pretty cool. Ill call it a win.

Thanks!
