Most likely, if the truck was originally destined for a cool climate, it was optioned in. If you can't find the cord, it is likely because it was never been used and is still tied up to the passenger side frame rail following backwards from the tow hook.
The other reason is someone damaged or removed the cord for some reason, you would then need to get under the truck and check the side of the engine block to see it it is there.
It was an option though so the potential exists that it is not there.
