I live in a warmer climate so I have never really had to worry about icy roads or having to keep my radiator plugged in.

The only difference is that you go out 10 minutes earlier than in the summer so you have extra time to scrape of the ice of the windows and that you have to change to winter wheels that should be studded instead of the stupid all round wheels. As a scandi i gotta say this thread had me laughing with all the weird things like block heaters and frozen batteris etc if you have a rust problem then get anti-rust treatment or buy a car from a winter country.

change to winter wheels

The modern all-purpose tires sold in America can handle quite a bit of snow, so tire-switching is not needed here (except in maybe the worst areas, like Alaska).

all the weird things like block heaters

Most parts of America don't need them. The places that need block heaters are much colder than Scandinavia.
