    the block heater is, the oil and tranny heaters you have to either install yourself or have the dealership install for you

    I also installed a battery minder that maintains 14volts whenever I plug my block heater in. I had a battery ehe after 4 days not driving at -40f

    Woke up this morning and we had a very light 'sprinkling' of dust on the ground that was mostly melted by the time that I left. So wasn't able to have much fun, but when making a right turn from a dead stop at a light I stepped on it pretty hard, & I was able to get a little fishtail goin which I was surprised the TC didn't kick in as hard as I had expected it to.
