    Just for some perspective I’m talking about where you need to remotely turn on your block heater so the diesel can return to liquid, the engine can turn on so the cabin heats up enough to allow the door locks and handles to function and let you in the car.

    Also driving to work in a hot car in southern Europe waiting for the AC to kick in really sucks, we should enjoy journeys, not just survive them.

      Boo fucking hoo when I was a kid we opened the windows of the car to cool down.

      I’m pretty sure places that are cold enough to freeze the gas have other solutions than oem remote start on their miatas
