POP, RATTLE, & SHAKE ... cold start ups

I currently have an 01 manual, base model with 76K miles, living in west Texas. We rarely get any cold weather, but lately every start up during the past week has been rough to my ears. I've had the car for only 5months.

It could be the cold weather, but everytime i start up the car, like the title, it shakes, rattles, and even shut down on me completely. The noise lasts for about 3 painful minutes. The car has a popping noise, definately in the engine area. Then it will start to rattle and shake. There are NO trusted repair shops around here that i've found and Dallas is a 3hr drive.

Any suggestions? I will upload youtube vid after class of the noise.
