Re: Keep 'um warm

Don I can't tell if you're kidding, but unless you plan to heavily insulate that hose, the air in it will probably cool down to a useless temperature within 10 feet of the house on those really cold mornings. Remote start is the way to go. Even on the coldest (single digit) mornings, it takes no more than 10 minutes to get the engine and interior to acceptable temps, and full hot air after a mile of driving. It does affect the mileage, but not as much as you would think.
