More heat seems like a bad idea- it does not get serious cold in Oregon and then stay that way for weeks like Montana, the Dakotas and Minnesota. Block heaters are not intended to keep a motor at operating temp and you probably would not want to pay the electric bill if they did. Seems like fixing something that is not broken. In extreme cold the next steps are battery blankets and transmission heaters- but you would never need them in Oregon. -Mike
