I didn't think it would be an obligatory number of miles.
Just general guide lines such as "engine coolant does not reach operating temperature during trip" or "engine spends half or more of the drive below operating temp".
Even with my new thermostat it looks like I will reach operating temperature some where between 1/2 and 3/4 of my drive to work in winter depending on how cold it gets.
