Temp gauge, how low can it go?

I'm in the northeast the temp has been bitterly cold the last couple of days. Does the P-car temperature gauge display negative when the temp is below zero?

The lowest reading I've seen is 1F. Just curious, what's the COLDEST & HOTTEST temperature you've seen on your temperature gauge?

I've seen -18 C which is roughly -0.5 F, so it stands to reasons that it could make the same temperature readout just in Fahrenheit for those of you in North Amerika.

I've seen -10 F on mine before.

It was -30 F here last winter at night for a week or so, but I don't think I took the C4S out then!
