2005 XLT not cranking after it was bitter cold for a week?

[zoldos]

I hadn't cranked my 2005 XLT for a bit, and it was around 25 degrees F for like a week. Then when I tried to crank it, it turned a couple times, but wouldn't start. I jumped it, and it ran perfectly thereafter, and cranked just fine the whole rest of the day.

Comments? Is this normal? The battery is about 7 months old. Thanks!

I would remove and clean the battery terminal connectors and the battery terminals with a terminal brush. May not be fully charging, or permitting full power for start-up.

Okay gotcha. Just strange as it worked perfectly before, and the only thing different was that it had been really cold the past week...
