Besides diesels, they're almost unheard of in the US. At least in the continental states; they might have them in the nastier parts of Alaska. Even there, a lot of the places where people actually live don't get that cold. Anchorage has an average low of -10C in January, which is cold, but not crazy cold.

Ah OK, I would have expected it to be quite a lot colder than that.
