Default I'm thinking of getting one.

This is the only one right. There's now dipstick type. Right?

I live soo close to work I hate to not have it warmed up.

How much is it?

Default The one I see on clair has no picture and is $75

I am in the same boat as you. It just doesn't get warmed up before I get to work.

This is the description:

This pad is designed to heat the oil, the oil pan, and as the heat rises into the engine, internal components are warmed as well. By warning the oil and engine components, you help reduce the drag and wear on internal components during initial start-up.

Default .... and you get to have a couple inches of cord with a plug hanging out of the front of your grill

very stylish, especially in orange. dipstick types are cheaper and also less effective than pad types, which lay against bottom of oilpan
