Block Heater Cord?
Hi, Got my first excursion. 2003 6.0 diesel and am LOVING it. Gets cold here at night and I was wondering if ALL 2003's come with the block heater. I have searched in all the right places and there is no cord, but is there definitely a block heater on all these 6.0 Powerstroke engines?

Welcome....
I would say ALL have the heater and the two I had, an 03 and 05, had the cord...
so think many will have them...
it is next to impossible to find unless u know what u are looking for...
it's a black cord, in a black hole, folded up in a dark spot
think of it as a female end of an extension cord with 3 holes and a plug over the top...
and honestly.... you probably won't need it

My '05 didn't come with it, I had to buy it and put it in. I think that in the later years they only came on trucks that were sent to northern/cold states.

Got mine when I lived in Miami I recall being told (somewhere on this forum) that they were only included on trucks that went to certain states, FL not being one of them....

Yep, sure did - I was surprised too !
Maybe both my 03 d 05 were intended for "up there"
but both were delivered to dealers here in the dfw area !
Not that I EVER need it
but I did try it once just for grins !!!
