It's kind of annyoing when it's 3 degrees F out. I don't need to know then, it should have a low range that it doesn't sound the chimes.

I know it is getting a bit annoying seeing that everyday now. What's more annoying is that I have to get the frost off the windscreen every morning. (you know what it's like when you're rushing to work every morning. <_< Even a normal cheap 15 year old Ford is equiped with heated windscreen........

As I know some model is equiped with Auxilary heater which allows you to set the timer to heat the car up. Well, I'm told by the dealer ths option is not available on petrol models. < It is true???
