compression for daily driver

What is a got compression for a strong running 2.6 truck that is a dd? I was thinking 15.5 or 15, It gets around 20 degree around here in the winter. So what do you guys think?

Don't sacrifice compression in a driver unless it's absolutely posatively necessary imho

If you can keep the truck plugged in, it would help, but I agree with these guys...probably not worth the headache.
