Do you need a Xanax? My GOD the heat in this forum.
All I said was I don't/wouldn't need it in my current situation.
And explained a real-life situation where it would be ideal.
If a garage is attached to the house and your house has adequate insulation you shouldn't have a problem either.
My situation would be ridiculous. Leave my 68 degree house to get in my 70 degree car? I wouldn't fuss with the fancy preconditioning stuff.

Preconditioning also helps the battery get up to temp so you're at peak operating condition once you get into the car. It's especially helpful on colder days where the temps might reduce regen for the first 15-20 minutes

Buddy of mine just leased one for $432/month. Not sure about the other terms of his lease. He works at Honda so he did mention the employee incentive he received.

Can't take those non-specific dealer rebates at face value, much of the time they are the aggregate of multiple essentially unstackable rebates where you couldn't possibly qualify for all of them (e.g. you have to be a teacher who is also in the military, is a recent college grad while also being a senior and the owner of three different competitor vehicles).
