They dont call the Southern US as Satans taint for no reason.

    I'm in Europe, but latitude is about the same as Anchorage, Alaska.

    For winter it's not uncommon to have auxiliary heating that starts off a remote or app. Plus you wear clothes to make up for it

    Summer is like 4-5 minutes of idling and then itโ€™s not TOO bad to get inside. Unless you parked straight in the sun and your first drive of the day is in the afternoon.

    Best car I've ever owned was a rusty 2003 MB E-class. 4 zone climate went down to 12C, seats were heated and ventilated, and you could set it to run the interior fan for 30 min with ignition off. 1000 miles to a tank of diesel.

    Cost me a whopping 3k. They're available as diesels in the US too (2005 MY only) and last about a million miles, but US did not get the diesel in the wagon body style I had, which made it the ultimate do-anything car
