Cars in the am
Do you warm up your car before driving?

Re: Cars in the am
i usually dont warm my car up before i drive. I usually just get in and go because the best way to warm your car up is driving it.

Re: Cars in the am
Nope -- plus EPA law says a car cannot idle for more than 3 minutes. I hate to see my neighbor's car "warming-up" for 10 minutes...
Cars made after 1980 or so do not need to be warmed up anyway.

Re: Cars in the am
We ususally auto start our cars in the AM so we can put the heat on sooner

I heard the same thing -- unless it's super freezing (single digits) you don't need to warm up your car more then a minute or so. Beyond that you are wasting gas and creating more pollution.

Re: Cars in the am
Before I had the automatic start I always warmed it up for 5-10 mins...I HATE driving in the freezing cold. Automatic start was the best thing ever invented IMO.

That's exactly how I am. I used to, when I had the car with the auto-start. Now my DH has that car, so I get into a cold car, but it's all for my 3 minute drive to the train.
