You might have the thermometer set at that temp but what is actual ambient air temp inside the freezer? When I put the thermometer by the blower it dropped to 15-20 degrees but as you know, it doesn't blow constantly. Ambient testing temps were right around 25-30 degrees. If yours goes colder (since mine is in the kitchen and mom would kill me if I gave all her food freezer burn) pick up a quart of 0W-30 and 5W-30 and do the test for me.
Freezer burn is not just related to cold it also has to do with moisture/air and exposure to the cold as in no bags ETC.
TO keep this on topic in my 3500 and any diesel I run Plus-50 0W-40. And in the S-10 I am running 5W-30 Synthetic.

Inch I forgot to mention that this weekend since it was freezing I went and looked at a jug of my plus 50 that was sitting out side compared to one that was around 60* I did not notice a lot of difference in the viscosity. And when I say Freezing we are talking over night I had ice in all of my water tanks that did not have the heaters built in.
