'05 Block Heater, STD or OPT?

[SuperCharged]

The Ford order guide says OPT for my region (OHIO) but dealer says STD and won't enter 41H on the order blank. What's the real story???

I was told it is a standard feature on the diesel in my area which is Wisconsin.

Mark,

I think it may be standard in your region, but either way it will be listed on the DORA [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If you check the order guide, you will see that the block heater is only standard in 10 states: Alaska, Colorado, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Wyoming. This is directly from the 07/01/2004 ordering guide for the 2005 Super Duty F-350. Or direct from the Model A's mouth [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Yes, but the order guide for the F-250 does not say that the engine block heater is no longer std on the PSD. The order guide for the F-350s says it plain and clear on page 1. Based on the order guide for the F-250, the engine block heater may still be part of the PSD pkg???

Smokey,

I just looked at the 250 guide and the only place that the Block Heater is listed is under the Fleet/LPO area. There it lists the same states as the 350 guide. I do know for a fact that on the '05 350's if you are not in one of those states you get the privledge of paying for it. It is on my DORA with a price.
