A pad heater on the engine oil pan will help as well.

Yup. Pad heaters come in 2 types. Magnetic, and a glue-on type. The glue on ones, or ones that are a sticky pad (clean surface thoroughly first) will work on a non-magnetic pan.

I love how my front air dam has turned into a plow when we have heavy, rapid snowfall here. Only thing that saved it from ripping off was the emt conduit brace I made for it. Ahhh winter....

The best solution is that run the blower fan on medium with AC off. Air blows into the car, and gets heat out the window.

2 Super low tanks in a row!

I'm putting the LRR tires back on as early as next week. Just need some decent weather and a better forecast. Don't think we're supposed to get any more snowmageddon's this year. (Didn't get any real snow, honestly)

I hope there are no more big snows this year. Average outside temps are going up and there are more daylight hours. The huge storm that was predicted wasn't as bad as advertised.
