Benny, a heated steering wheel would be heaven. My sister had it on her A6 10 years ago. A little hint, Lexus? Mine is all leather, no wood, so that's probably a little better. The bun warmers work perfectly 
What do you think of the heat? I know you were worried about it after my comment.
Pics will have to wait until this weekend. It was mostly rain last night into today. I went through a bunch of puddles that washed the salt away. Snow is in the forecast tomorrow night. After that the temp goes down. Guess the 450h will be dirty for a while.

Ah the original RX had the most powerful heated seats (ask my sons). The second generation had a dial with many choices and were also hot but not as much as the original one. The new one is not nearly as powerful. However, I only like my seat to be warm so they're fine for me.
My car was so dirty (every time I planned to get it washed it snowed again and all the salt on the hilly roads) I finally had it washed today. I'm sure it was splashed on the way home but I can actually tell it is a blue car now!

Another storm early this morning, less than half a foot. Work had a delayed opening so I was out there cleaning up during daylight. Couldn't resist taking this shot. I brushed away the snow from the headlight to wake him up 
Take my word for it, there is lots of dirt underneath the white stuff

I put the wipers up for easy cleaning and to prevent them from freezing to the windshield. A few swipes with the sno brum and away it goes. It's the law here to clean off the car. Failure to do so will cost $75 and it's a primary offense. They were handing them out like candy at Halloween today.

Thank you I would have never know all of this still glad that I am on the coast. I can always drive to get away from a bad storm but you know that it is coming a week out or more to get ready for it. All this snow you just never know how much will hit do you?

Snow is pretty unpredictable. Either we get more than predicted or none at all. And this was supposed to be a La Nina year 
I'd take the snow over hurricanes any day though. A little plowing and salt and it goes bye bye. Hurricanes are a whole different animal.

Here's the proof
Who said silver hides the dirt? I took these today a little more than 24 hours after the last snow storm. It was tempting to bring out the hose but at 23 degrees the water would just freeze on the RX and ground. It feels even better Another storm is brewing for Wednesday, the sixth one in a month.

hurricanes are no big thing you just got to know that everything you have might be gone if you are near the water or a big oak tree might come through your house or your roof might be gone other than that no power for a few weeks and long gas lines the rest is easy. In 50 years only to bad storms here 1979 and 2005

I didn't have the heated seats in my '07 RX, and I thought I would never need them living in Florida, but I'm definitely using the heated seats in the 2010 RX, as there's been a lot of cold days in Florida this year. I set the heated seats at 2-and-a-half, and that seems to work very well.
