Tell them you get heat faster, the car saves fuel, and the engine stays warmer longer in between trips. You save a little money (a little) and you're more comfortable. Luxury!

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
