I think the ULSD that we have to deal with today gells a lot easier than the older diesel. I have gelled my truck several times. A few times I could limp home with the check engine light on, one time it was bad enough that it wouldn't run. I carry a quart of powerservice 911 with me and always put additive in now in the wintertime. I haven't had a problem since I bought a fuel filter heater similar to this: http://utahbiodieselsupply.com/fuelfilterheater.php
edit: The other and more likely reason is seems worse today is the new trucks with today's emissions have very fine filters. I am sure those 2 micron filters needed for the new injectors plug a lot faster than the injectors on the older (10+ year) old trucks.
