Hello, and thanks for getting in touch. The etrailer Electric Trailer Jacks # e55ZV and # e23ZV will hold up just fine in cold weather. The housing is designed to be water/weather resistant. It even has a manual backup option if you were to lose power for some reason. The jack actually includes a vinyl cover that goes over the motor and housing. Keeping this cover on the jack as often as possible will undoubtedly increase the lifespan. While I don't necessarily recommend it, I have heard of people leaving the cover on the jack while they tow. This can be a little risky though. I would hate for your cover to go missing if you catch my meaning. Overall this jack is a solid choice for any climate, and it will do fine in the cold.

Hey, how has the electric trailer jack been holding up in the weather so far? Did keeping the vinyl cover on help protect it like we mentioned? Your update could make it easier for others wondering about cold-weather use.
