copyboy,

OK, a block heater won't do it for you then. I can't use it either, as I too park on the street.

It surprises me a bit that you don't get better mileage on a 7 mile commute. But it seems to be the worst possible combination. A relatively short commute and first downhill, then flat, then uphill.

I had about 6 miles to work for a while. I went by bicycle instead of using the car, when the weather allowed for it... :-)
