“My house was built in 2017. My current electric dryer was installed the same time the house was built. Can I just buy the LG electric dryer without the power cord and reuse my current electric dryer power cord instead of spending 29.99 for a power cord.”

You certainly can, but whatever store you buy from won't install it for you since your cord isn't "new". I'd buy a new one if I were you. Leaving a cord with your old dryer makes it easier to sell, too. If $$ is the issue, increase the asking sale price of your old dryer by $20-$30 to make up for it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The grounding and wiring for the LG 7.4 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity Smart wi-fi Enabled Electric Dryer, Model # DKE3500W, like all our Electric Dryers, must conform to the latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and to all applicable local regulations. It has its own terminal block that must be connected to a separate (dedicated) 240 VAC, 60-Hertz single-phase circuit fused at 30 amperes. You can use a 30-amp, 240-volt, 3-wire or 4-wire, UL-listed power cord with #10 AWG-minimum copper conductor and closed loop or forked terminals with upturned ends. A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile and manufactured home installations, as well as all new construction after January 1, 1996. A 3-wire connection is NOT permitted on new construction after January 1, 1996. If in doubt, you will need to check your local building codes or consult your local building inspector about which connection is allowed in your building or home. ^CP
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When I bought the dryer I got the set and they told me I could just return it if I had a cord that worked already :)
