Seasonal Tips - Colder Weather

What do you recommend or do to your car as the weather starts to get colder?

Just to start the conversation, I just finished putting rodent repellent in all my cars. As the weather gets colder here, the mice look for shelter and chew up wires and interior padding. I'd prefer to kill them, but not *in* my car.

Other thoughts:
I change oil in the spring and fall. Usually the same grade here in Oklahoma, but it makes for a good routine.
I pay a lot more attention to the temperature before opening the top. I have cracked a perfectly good plastic window when the temp was in the 50s and the car had been in the shade.
I have no reason to store a car, but there's some great threads on the forum:
