[QUOTE="Carey Frennier, post: 841723, member: 66764"] I let mine warm up 5min before driving it in the morning. I jump in and go without warmup for lunch and at the end of the work day. I live .5 miles from my job. I drive the long way home as often as I can so the engine can at least warm up a little. I just have an phobia about starting and stopping the vehicle in less than 3min. It doesn't even get warm. I literally drive less than 3 miles per day so the economy is horrible. During this time of year I get about 9-10mpg city and 16 highway. However, that includes mpg lost for warm up time. During the summer I get 14-16 mpg avg city and at least 21-24mpg highway. I don't baby it anymore. Every time I drive like an old woman I get issues with transmission shift flares. I have a AWD V8. I don't consider the above bad economy for what it is. [/QUOTE]
