Default 2001 Bullitt Transmission/Oil Pan Heater

Hey guys, I have a question on winter heaters. I'm pretty sure my vehicle (in the owner's manual) stated that it had a battery heater that can be plugged in, but nothing on oil pan or transmission heater. With brisk temperatures on the horizon, my car might be outside a little bit (i've got it garaged now, but i have to share it).

So do you guys think it's worth it to invest in a transmission heater? What about an oil pan heater? Temperatures around here can be from 20 F to -40 F (don't worry, anything past 20 below and I'm hitching rides). I barely drive my car in winter, but I drive it occasionally to/from work and school if it's warmer than 15 below outside. I'm getting an auto start soon, which means I would have the vehicle warmed up for about 10 minutes usually everytime before driving it.

Forget that! It hardly ever gets below 30 degrees here! We'd be locked in the house if it got to 0! We do get 100+ with 80% humidity in the summer though.
