Sub Zero strat up.

I was wondering if anybody else is experiencing the same feeling after a cold start up.
When I drive it off the driveway I feel it's so heavy,I know,fluids are cold,Clutch Fan is spinning almost @ engine's revs,I feel if it was dragging something behind.
I feel it more since I drove the 4runner for few hours,damn,not a comparison to X,but I noticed that it coasts with less deceleration,almost like if it was a standard gear box in Neutral(but still in D position).And it's not wandering as my X does,goes straight no mater the pavement imperfections.
That made me wonder about my front end suspension components being good at all.It needs a constant input no matter the speed,also goes whatever side when I am braking,if I release the steering wheel it would spin 90 degrees(that could be because of the brakes,I know,alignment was checked and was not bad,but not redone since I need the rear swing arm replaced due the failing bushing)
