Comments: To: Vanagon <VANAGON@VANAGON.COM>

Just a word of caution here. Just because it's thick, doesn't mean it's heavy duty electrically. A few years ago I sold one of these 'heavy duty' cords and got a standard extension cord from a hardware store because the AMP rating on the standard one was twice the rating of the 'heavy duty' one. Besides, the thick end on the plug made it difficult to plug it into the receptacle. The supplied cord was not very long either, about 6 feet I think.

Did the U.S. Westies come new with an electric cord from the factory, or was there one available from the dealer? >>

there was a (length not memorized) heavy duty electrical cord that was supplied w/ the US westies.
