Whenever I go out on what I call "Winter Sneaky Runs", I always use the Heated Steering Wheel, Max Heated Seats, and set HVAC to 80F, lol.
Makes the drive way more comfortable for sure.
Winter Sneaky Runs must comply with:
1.) All snow/ice melted off the streets.
2.) A hard rain has washed all the salt/sand off the streets.
3.) Outside temps are above 40F.
