A method of preparing a car for travel is provided. The system incorporates a user's calendar into the vehicle's navigation system, synchronizes the on-board calendar with the calendar contained on the user's device (e.g., cellular phone, laptop computer, tablet computer, personal digital assistant, computer system, etc.), determines the locations corresponding to each of the appointments contained on the calendar, estimates the travel time between locations, and determines appropriate departure times corresponding to each appointment on the calendar. Using this information, the system may be configured to automatically activate a thermal management system or other auxiliary system prior to an intended departure time.
