Milwaukee M18 Impact

Biking in a Michigan winter sounds fun.

We had a 2020 Altima as a rental while my wife’s car was being repaired (after being totaled - there was no actual major damage, just the nature of the amount of damage and the age of the car), and besides the fact it reeked of smoke (clearly ignoring the “no smoking” stickers everywhere), the infotainment was one of…

“Pre-conditioning” would be the correct term there. I do that in winter in my Volt (or basically whenever it is less than 50 outside) for a few minutes while still plugged into the house (so not all of the power being wasted to heat the cabin is coming from the car).

As an added benefit, you won’t return to a car that has been absolutely baking in the sun and/or the majority of your walk in the rain/snow would be covered.

They will shout profanity at you and castigate you for attempting to follow their instructions.
