I bought and successfully installed a grid charger and it both worked on the first try and improved the car. On the heels of that success maybe now - or rather, shortly after it thaws - is the time to order and install a block heater, while Sweetie is still impressed by my brilliance. Sweetie would be tickled to have a car that was warm when it started, not once it was five miles down the road.

And I would get some of my mpg's back.
