If you have a car, do you let it warm up for...

A minute or two? ( before using it) I was always under the impression to do that, hot or cold temps outside, to give engine a moment to run. Then once my friend did it too..she said, Im just giving it a minute to warm up ( her dad is a mechanic). But I see many just start it and go in one second. 🤔

In warmer weather, I start my car and go immediately. In cold weather, i.e., 15 F or colder, I let it run for a minute or so, and then I go. Sometimes, when my windshield is covered with ice, I turn the window defroster on full blast and let the engine run for a few minutes to clear the windshield.
