at what temps do you folks plug in?

I'll probably start plugging it in when the temps dip into the 30's, not exceeding the 40's during the day. Is this pretty much standard?

block heaters

I spoke to my International dealer, did a search here and this is what i came up with.

Part # Z3500043 which is reportedly only supposed to cost 25.00 or so was not recognized by the dealer.

Part # 1686485 was recognized but was listed at like 80 bucks, which he marked down to like 58.50 for me. Still seems like a lot but since my truck didn't come with it.....

YMMV

My ld wanted $85 for it so I posted here too and was given this link........

paid about 60 or 70 for the one with harness and clips so I saved $20 or so.
