Whether or not you should warm up your car, it sounds like the original poster was just letting it idle and then putting it back in his garage.

Don't do that; you just load the oil up with nasty combustion by-products, and then leave them there to etch away the insides of your engine.

Buy a battery maintainer, only start the car if you are going to drive it for more than 30 minutes.
