Guess what: hats, coats, gloves, boots, and blankets come in 4 year old sizes too.

When it gets down to -35, I'll hear what you're saying. Sheesh, 35 is still above freezing. There ain't gonna be any frostbite, windburn, or anything. Bring 'em up to MN for the winter and they'll climb into your "cold" 35 deg. truck in t-shirts and shorts.

Otherwise, get in there and go, the cab will start warming up within 5 minutes or so AS YOU DRIVE.

But yeah, a block pre-heat is a good thing anyway. The core plug heaters are the best, but the coolant line spliced heaters are OK too.
