mine up here in Canada is equipped as built except it
now has AC60G plugs...I've installed a block heater,
but other than to test it, I haven't used it...truck
has 6TL batteries, and I upgraded to a 4 core radiator
because of tank twisting problems I used to have in my
civvy '85 1/2 ton 6.2L that went away after upgrading
it to a four core rad...the CUCV starts up easily even
at -20C(-4F)
