Heres my figgers:

If the mileage goes from 28 to 34 with the heater thats a savings of $2 (half gallon) per 100 miles. So in 5000 miles thats a $1000 savings.

Block heater is $80.

Is that right?

No its 50 x $2 which is $100.

Pays for itself in a year.

Electricty is 12 cents kwhr x 1 = 12 cents per day to heat. .12 x 180 days = ~$20? per year for electric.
