What year truck? There should be plenty of slack to get it to the front of the bumper (should being the key word there)

And if not, no I wouldnt go extending it. Id go get a longer one, but thats just me. I personally dont like cutting and splicing if I dont have to.

The cord may be bundled. Look it over good, cut the tie wrap and run it out through the front by the headlight. That's where most are anyway.

There should be plenty of extra cord, it's just bundled up.

There should be enough to route it conservatively and have about 12 - 18" left over sticking out of the bumper.
