Ya, that's my problem. It's one mile to work and even in the summer my engine might only reach 100° F by the time I reach work, or home, or the store, etc.

Now that it's getting warmer I'm trying to walk to work more. But it still keeps snowing, like this morning we had an inch of snow. And it's also very muddy right now where there isn't any snow.

I also need to figure out my block heater situation. I already replaced the GFCI outlet, but now it seems to keep popping all the time. Maybe it's the cord being on wet ground and partially frozen in ice. But since I also have a freezer in the shed connected to that outlet I'm now affraid to use it to plug my block heater in, especially since we're getting abover freezing temperatures now.
