A system includes a processor configured to access a schedule of vehicle start times. The processor is also configured to select a scheduled key-on time, when a current time is within a tunable proximity to the scheduled key-on time. Further, the processor is configured to determine if a present vehicle-related temperature warrants vehicle preconditioning and precondition the vehicle until preset preconditioning settings are established.
