Yeah, I think I need an EV button. I also just need to learn more about all the warm-up stages and that other techno-mumbo-jumbo!
I plan to order a block heater and technical manual through the Milwaukee Hybrid Group. Unfortunately, our head honcho is out for a while because of knee surgeries, so I don't know when the next meeting will be...
Ideally, I'd like to have the block heater rigged up in such a way that the car is always warmed up before use, but the car isn't going to be on a regular schedule. So, it's going to need some sort of a remote or other way to activate it when we know the car is going to be used.
I also just got the car into our garage. It's detached and uninsulated, but even just being out of the wind and having a bit of thermal mass around it should help keep it a tad warmer.
