Tomato selection and your veggie grow list

Last year was so cold for tomatoes that I'm trying to limit my tomatoes this year. What do people find grew the best for them? Has anyone grown San Francisco Fog, which is supposed to do well with cold nights? I used to grow mainly very early small tomatoes but branched out after I started using tunnels, but a bad year like last year makes all the work unproductive, I suppose I could go back to the early ones but... not very satisfying.

My best performers recently-

Verna's Orange Oxheart
