Okay, just having a little more fun to expand on 4griffins thread on letting the truck warm up. What do you do?

Depends on the outside temp, how cold it is outside, if I'm hauling anything, and how quick I have to get up to speed. Anywhere from less than 1 minute in moderate to warm temps up to the gauge being half way up in cold weather if I stay at a hotel off the interstate with a trailer.

Usually less than a minute. On occasion when there's snow, the truck will run as I scrape everything off. Then I jump in and drive.
