Generally I don't warm up. Not only is it a waste of fuel, but I believe the concept that more engine wear occurs at cold engine temps, so a prolonged warm-up is counter productive compared to getting up to temp faster by driving it. Haven't seen empiricle data to back the whole idea up, but seems logical. That said, in extreme cold I will give it a couple minutes to get things circulating a little.

No wait here in Quebec. If you do it, you can have a ticket in Montreal.

Man I am glad I live in Florida. I am originally from Wisconsin and I do not miss warming up my vehicle before I have to go. I was in Alabama for a few months last year and I did have to warm it up a few times, but that was only because the windsheid was all frosty and I didn't have an ice scraper!

Id like to keep my jk for as long as i can so i let it warm up 10 min

I've been told that with today's high(er) tech motor oils, they start circulating immediately so you don't need to warm it up more than a few seconds.

Usually 5-10 minutes here and that's mostly so the heater is throwing molten lava out the vents.

seems as though the consensus is that the Jeep doesn't need to be babied

In the morning my wait time is only as long as it takes to put on my seatbelt, but I have the engine blcok heater so the oil is already warm. After work when the oil is ice cold, after I start it I wait for the dasboard lights to go out (enough time for the engine oil to get up to pressue) and the satellite radio to find the station and then off I go.

I usually will let it warm up for about 5 mins if it is 40F or below. Mostly just long enough for me to go back upstairs and finish getting ready for work. Plus I have a nice warm interior to get into and not freezing for half of my drive to work.
