So, you live in CA and have a block heater? Bet you get questions about it a lot.
I mean, nobody is gonna know unless I tell them I guess. It was on the truck already.

There are places in CA that get cold enough to warrant one, just not usually the part of CA that I live in.

I just keep envisioning a plug sticking out of the front bumper. :crackup:

And that is what you should be picturing, but it's covered and on a bracket.

Not my pic (found via google) as I haven't been outside yet... but you get the idea. Nobody would likely know what it's for. Could be just an air hose based on the cover.

That's not so bad. Still looks a little weird. But this is what I had envisioned. We used these back in Ohio. I also installed a few in tractors here in Va. when I wrenched on them.

Yep. Totally understood what you were picturing. We would just zip tie the plug to a random part of the grill when we installed them. So from that point of view I'm impressed that they bracketed it and put a nice cover on it.

We used that plug style when I lived in Alaska.

I mean, there was already tint, and mud flaps, and things I don't necessarily count.

And I might also have ordered the ProCal. Allegedly. But probably.

My wife thinks the Procal came with truck.
Maybe I kinda told her that, maybe not....

We had an agreed upon total budget which left me room for a few things. She encourages most of my shenanigans.

Oh, I did order a bed mat from Ford, 100% at her encouragement. Hoping it keeps things from sliding around a bit.
