Hmmm, never heard of that.

Auxiliary Electric Heater

Vehicles equipped with a diesel engine come with an auxiliary electric heater. This 12V electrically powered heating element is positioned directly behind the regular coolant flow based heater core in the HVAC case. All airflow goes through the regular heater core first, and then through the auxiliary electric heater. The auxiliary electric heater is active when the outside ambient temperature is below 8°C (46°F) , the coolant temperature is below 75°C (167°F), and the temperature air mix door is near the full hot position.

I didn't know if the gas burners with the optional dual battery setup had the electric heater as standard or not.

I've "heard" of it, but never really heard specifics. Great idea for cold country, especially in diesel trucks. Cold blooded beasts!

We don’t see many of those options (supplemental electric heat, snow plow) down here in Tejas. I can see a cooled steering wheel being popular.
My Buddy drove to Cali for Christmas to visit his boy. I think the photo was in Barstow.
