Why is long engine idling not the best way to warm a vehicle in winter?
Correct answer: Gentle driving also warms moving parts that remain cold while idling
Why
Prepare the vehicle and clear the windows before moving. Once ready, gentle driving warms parts that prolonged stationary idling does not; follow the vehicle manufacturer's cold-weather instructions.
