It will warm up faster and burn less gas if you drive it instead of idling - look in the owners manual - you all did read the owners manual didn't you???

Thirty seconds then off I go, it warms the car up much faster and it's better for the environment anyway.

Actually I take off without any gas - just let the fast idle do the work
