Do you Warm up before you go ?
Cuz if you do, you're wasting gas and time.

The most important part is to not put a heavy load/strain on the engine, until it is properly warmed up (oil/coolant). You can drive "normal" from the beginning, just no heavy foot.

I don't let it warm up per say, but I do let it idle down before moving.

It might sound counter intuitive but idling the engine for 5 minutes is doing more damage than good. Driving u der light load warms it up quicker and warm is good, idling cold is bad.

I let my engine idle down before I take off.
