Green, if the name of the game is improving mpg then why not use block heaters, cabin space heaters and all the tricks? There may also be less engine wear and certainly easier starting on our diesels. Generally, internal combustion engines create the most pollutants when cold. FWIW, I sometimes use two heaters on the engine and one in the cabin and do not even notice a difference on my electric bill.
Great mpg numbers on your trip.
