    Unless your car is like over 30 years old, there is no need to warm it up before driving. Unless we’re talking about struggling to clear the windshield.

      I’d say the windshield is probably the biggest thing, nearly the whole point. Also while the engine may be good to go in short order, the cabin can still be pretty cold and unpleasant. I can’t stand driving in thick coat and gloves, so a nice cabin is pretty luxurious to step into.

        If it’s cold outside, I’m wearing a coat and gloves and all that, so there is no need. The only time I’ve had to wait is when I can’t defrost the windshield for whatever reason.
