Trying out 5w-30 engine oil

So, when you have all those heat features on the vehicle, do you have instant heat out of the vents when you start up in the morning?

Nope. I live in the Midwest. In my diesel, I ran a block heater, twin battery warmers, and oil warmer. It warms up faster, but not immediately. If I were to hook up my scan tool with everything plugged in overnight it probably kept things 30ish degrees above ambient. Which sounds like alot but thats 50* when its 20* out. 10* at -20*. Operating temp where you really experience heat from the vents is over 100* and thats luke warm at best.

Its less about getting heat in the cab and more for easier starting and faster warm ups.
