    I guess winter driving counts. I spent 6 winters in New York which lasted 6 months of the year. I had to start up our cars and leave them running for 10-15 minutes until the engine warmed up and the heater had warm air flowing. That had to be done first before going to work and then again before going home.

    Usually, I started up the car and left it idling while I went back inside the house and had breakfast.

    At -40F/-40C and colder? Forget it. The ignition won't even turn.
