Yikes !?! 37 bucks.

Hate to say this, but this sounds exactly like a Dodge dealer. Those guys want 35 + for a cord but if you go down to a Cummins distributor you can get the same cord for about 10 bucks.

I am willing to bet dollars to pesos that you can get your cord at an International distributer for about 10 bucks.

Absurd for a 3 foot extension cord

When I ordered my 250 psd it came with the block heater as stated on the window sticker. Beside the passenger tow hook is a plug that you plug an extension cord into. Does that mean I already have what I need and all I have to do it plug it in?

Yes, if you have the plug the heater is there. It draws around 1000W, that's $0.065/hr.

That is the list from International's website. I still don't agree with 37 bucks. A block heater cord is a common item.
