Are you sure the scanner is alright? I think I would try to generate a code just to verify the scanner. Cranking it over with the MAS or TPS sensor unplugged should generate the appropriate code.

Did you figure it out? I would be interested in hearing what happened. I would guess some sort of blockage either in the intake or exhaust tract. Icing in the intake might be a possibility - did you look at the air filter? Any chance you damaged the exhaust while driving around in the snow? Of course there is always the chance you have water in the gas. Even if it is a minor amount, it can freeze in the lines and stop you cold. A frozen gasoline vent line could also play ahvoc with the truck....
