Are we talking about putting the vehicle into drive/reverse as soon as the engine starts running? I am waiting for my delivery next month but my current vehicle needs about 1-2 mins before the revs go back to normal idle speed... it starts near 2k rpm and idles at 1.1k rpm a min or so later and I'm off...

Shouldn't you at least let it run for a minute regardless on a cold day before throwing it into gear? Cabin/interior heating issues aside...
