l am not sure if l could warm it up, it is your car after all

:0)

Only if you live above the Mason Dixon line and it gets cold in the mornings, modern cars are get it, start and go.

No, cars warm up quicker when driven. The drag of the car under power makes everything except the occupants warm up quicker!

If you live where it gets below zero and it sets out side it would not hurt to let it run a few minutes to get the fluids flowing and oil pressure built up.

It depends. Generally, not for the benefit of the car, & you're just wasting gas. It is better to drive it at low RPM for the first few miles. However, if you're getting on the Interstate immediately, it would help to let it run for a couple of minutes before pressing the pedal to the metal, especially in winter.

On the other hand, u live in a cold climate & want to get into a warm car in winter, a remote start will warm the engine & the interior. Only available on automatics & there is still the wasting gas issue.
