Given how many of my neighbors drive their trash to the dumpster (or in the past, to the ends of their driveways), I imagine saving on warmup times would help tremendously with national gas mileage averages. I had a coworker who would drive across a parking lot to get a sandwich from the American Deli - about 100ft. She's thin and healthy (pays for a gym membership and actually uses it) and in her late 20's.
