I know I'm wasting gas/money, but it's safer to drive when you're not
shivering. ;-)


I actually calculated the cost of idling and I'm willing to pay the few
cents to have a warm car. I also put the seat heater switch in the "on"
position to get that started too.
Hi,
Driving warms up car faster. My wife's car has auto climate control which
blows hot air almost right away. I start engin,e as soon as hi idle speed
drops I drive away.

Sure, driving warms the car faster, but I'd still have to be in the cold
car while it heated up. As long as I start it early enough, I can go from a
nice warm house to a nice warm car with no ice on the windows, etc.
