It seems like no dealer orders jeeps with engine block heaters. Whats up with that? I live in the north east and its a $35 option. Why do they not just throw it in there?

Makes no sense to me either, some do not include it guess they do the math...their cost 2.00 X 80,000 vehicals. My JKU came stock with it, must be default for Canada. It a upgrade worth it...when its 20 bellow I use my to help the oil lube on start up...anything to keep our 3.8 L's happy

I do believe that most dealers have the block heaters installed in the vehicles that they sell in Canada. Maybe in B.C. it is an option, but almost everywhere else it is a must have.

Most car company websites if you go to the "build your own" option and click on engine block heater it says that they come standard in a lot of northern states. You might be able to get it for free if the website states it. I know Fords in WI are suppose to have heaters as standard equipment (at least F150's)

Mine came stock here. Must be a Canadian thing.

You really expect Chrysler to think outside of the box?

I suppose North Western Massachusetts must not qualify for enough cold days for it to be considered standard since it only get really cold a few days out of the year. oh well.

Actually I though maybe when the dealers placed the orders maybe they would have actually though of it, but that probably even more far fetched of an idea then Chrysler thinking outside the box considering my local dealer is more concerned with telling me how wrong I am for the configuration I want
