Here is the myth: You should always let your car warm up before driving off. What do you think-- myth or fact? Highlight the text below to see the truth of the matter!
Here's the truth: For yesteryear's cars, letting your vehicle warm up was always a good idea. But the same does not necessarily hold true for today's cars and trucks. Advances in technology and build materials allow modern engines to warm up more quickly--thus offering the best efficiency and fuel economy--when they're driven, all without sacrificing any durability. That's not to say you should go pedal-to-the-metal right as soon as your engine turns over, but you should feel free to make the drive to work as you normally would!
