Frank, the heater costs about $40 with all of its excess markup. It's the labor for the install at the stealer, a frame cross member has to be removed. I wish it was done at the factory. It would cost 2 to 10 bucks there total. Add the timer and a winter type extension cord and it's not a cheap investment.

Regardless of the cost, it helps on the first trip of the day and it saved about 5 cents a day during the non-summer months.
