How to prepare a truck to operate in freezing conditions

I have a coworker that just purchased a 2009 F350 and is moving from CA to the Detroit area for work. The truck is FULLY loaded and came with a block heater. I have heard about issues with diesel fuel jelling at low temperatures. Are there any other precautions he will need to take to make sure his truck will start in the mornings? Will he need some kind of fuel tank heater or warming blanket?

Thanks for the help guys
