I have two sweatshirts from former boyfriends I sometimes wear (when I am cleaning the car off but not going to drive it right away), but seriously, for those of us with wide or tall vehicles and short arms, it makes sense. Plus the sweatshirt material gets damp and heavy, nor is it wind resistant.

Have you checked with your electric company for an energy audit? Mine does one, and it helped us (me and the landlord) get set up for the winter. I also knit "draft dodgers" and felted them, then filled them with quilt batting for the doors and windows. I was going to make blackout curtains but Wal-Mart was selling ready made black out curtains (nice looking ones even) for cheaper than the fabric alone.
