I planned on getting one for the winter months anyways, But I'm wondering if I could/should use it on cooler mornings.

Right now I'm working two jobs, and one is 1.4 miles away, Not that far for it to get warmed up. Would it be better to use the block heater when its cooler out? at what outside temp would it be unnecessary?
