Cordless Block-Heater

Winter is coming soon in my part of the woods, and I do not have access to an electrical outlet where I park my truck. I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of a cordless block-heater (propane maybe?). I know they make ones that run of diesel, but never seen a portable one for a gas engine.

Any and all info appreciated

At one time there was a heater truckers used that was gasoline fired. I think new they were a little spendy! May be some used ones around. Can't remember who made them. Some one on this site may know.
