Well if it has the 4.7L engine it is likely due to incorrect cooling system refill procedures.

I see 5.9L - be sure the antifreeze solution is strong enough for those COLD temperatures.. Possible thermostat malfunction as well. That’s just a couple suggestions but in reality *hands-on* evaluation by qualified personnel will be required. Good luck!
