Anything I can possibly think of. Honestly, its about treating the car right and maintaining its longevity brutha ! Also sometimes referred to as "babying" but I don't see it as babying at all.
Just taking care of it and once properly warmed, driving the sh#it out of it ! I love the thing too much to drive it cold. I keep it in the garage. I open the garage door, start the thing and go in the house and let it get to 180.

But then again, its not my every day driver. Its my "therapy on wheels". Many out there may not have that type of luxury and they gotta get to where they gotta get to and like NOW. Like a JOB for instance....Me, I'm a Hyundai Guy for THAT

Garage
Thought it was also a bad idea also to let your car just idle for extended periods as the oil is not circulating properly?
