Tarev, I've been there, done that with the engine block heater... for some reason, people don't seem to use them as much anymore here
Fortunately we have an attached garage that rarely goes below freezing (I can store my onions and potatoes there, unless we have an extreme winter like last year, then I had to move them to a different area), and we're retired so the vehicles don't stay out anywhere else for extended periods of time. Winter seems to be starting rather early even for here, though -- I really, REALLY hope it isn't going to be a repeat of last year
