On the way in, I held off running the heater until the coolant temperature hit 155F. It didn't reach 160F before I arrived. The grille is 100% blocked.
True that. It was -20 here yesterday. It didn't even get warm on the inside of the cabin the whole 20 miles to work. That was max heat the entire time lol. I think Fwt was maybe 140 max at the end. Today I didn't take any chances. I packed snow into every grill opening. hahaha
Got to 188 max within 6 blocks! (not negatives today )
