The best way to heat up your garage fast is to park your car in a sunny parking lot for an hour or two or drive it a few miles in the sun, then park it in your garage. A ton of hot steel, well over 100° on the outside, will share its heat with your garage interior, and that will take a long time to cool down. If you want a cooler garage, it will help to park your car on the driveway when you come back from your errands and not move it into the garage until just before you go to bed.
