    Sometimes 0 mpg is better when it means less time scraping, more comfort, and (more importantly) less load on the engine before it has a chance to get some heat. Not to mention the truck performs better and the estimated trip mpg also reflects that. It'll typically show me around 16 mpg in the winter with no warm up and around 20 with a warm up for the same trip. So really, you're not saving much if anything vs a 5-10 minute warmup.

    I just wanted to point it out since some people say it's very finicky. I rarely have any issues, but pushing it more can give more opportunities to cause issues, I'd guess.

    Title was confusing, I expected: push throttle-engine starts. Remote Start makes more sense. :thumbsup:

    Tell me this when you've endured weeks of -40 to -50 lol. I'm not one to let it run for really long, but 10 minutes makes a big difference.
