As to cost for heating, 50 cents a night isn't that much but it adds up. That also assumes that you plug it in just before you go to bed. Not likely for me! Maybe I'll see if I can fit a timer under there also.
Maybe I'll just not worry about it!

The only problem I see with the timer on the car is that it won't keep time when you're not plugged in. So when you're out driving around, the timer isn't turning, and you'll have to get in there and reset it every day.
They make heavy duty weatherproof timers that you could put on the garage wall or outside wall of your house and just wire up a GFCI outlet to it. Set it to come on a couple hours before you normally leave for work, and all you have to do is plug in the car every evening.
