I remember this winter we had a night of -30C, my gf didn't plug in her lancer and her coolant was -28C (plugged into the OBDII). I plugged in my car ~3 hours before I had to go to work, and my coolant was +12C. Makes a huge difference in starting.
Oh right..I just moved out to Calgary from Toronto.
I never experienced Calgary winter before, but have heard that it gets brutally cold..
I guess I will need it.
I was wondering somewhere along the lines of plugging a whole in the block and seals may deteriorate over time or what not
(overly cautious..my first new car lol)
