Plenty of stored heat in the battery, the system likely didn't think it needed any maintenance warming, it might not even try if you had a DCFC charging station posted as destination that was within 20 miles.

Does OBD or Forscan show Cabin temp?

Testing DCFC is something I plan to do in the future.
I have not focused on battery temp too much. From what I have seen so far the truck is happy leaving the battery alone if it's over 50F. I have not done much testing on that though since my truck rarely gets cold soaked. With the mild temp here even a full work day doesn't drop the battery temp that much.
I was hoping you would, I didn't want to side track your mission with cabin comfort at the moment.
As an aside, this evening I went for an hour long cruise with the truck in tow/haul mode, no appreciable increase of motor energy it was at 94% the entire time, earlier today I got it to rise from 91% to 96% using a DCFC drive destination. I'm thinking the tow/haul trick is only good for chilling a hot battery but not warming a cold battery. Add that test to your OBD2 research agenda, I'm curious what you will see.
