[QUOTE="DW Ruby, post: 339129, member: 8592"] Ok, so that answers part of my question. I don't think the issue of it being too cold for the electrics is a real concern for me, given that my garage is heated and I can't envision using 'stealth mode' elsewhere. What I am wondering about still, is the start of the ICE, after concientiously leaving my garage and heading down the road. Is it not a good idea to warm up the engine a bit, before hitting the streets? This is akin to firing up any C8, then putting it immediately into drive, however, it may be exasperated by the fact that in the E-Ray you will already be travelling at a decent pace. I see lots of info in the Owners manual about warming the engine to check the oil, but nothing at all about warming up the engine prior to driving. Is this just 'Old School' thinking on my part? Are these engines so sophisticated now that it's fine to just start and go? Curious. (I'll keep on warming it up, thank you) [/QUOTE]
