Anyone use two?

Has anyone ever installed two block heaters in their 300? Just currious. If not I may add an oil pan heater as well.

Just thought I could install two. I know alot of diesels do that around here.
A glue on oilpan heater for the really cold days will help the block heater out.

There is no reason I can see that you can't use as many as u want. Many use two in the Arctic. And or never shut them off longer than to maintain them like change oil. That,s mostly big rigs.
