What I do is.......

remote start it from the bathroom

, let it warm for about 5 minutes, start driving but never over 2.5K, wait till the thermo is at the midpoint, then its okay to take it over 3k!! You'll get some mixed reviews as far as the problems, extended "cold idling/warming up" causes, but thats what I do!

I've heard that its fine just to turn on and drive. When it comes to me. Well on thoses early cold days I let it warm up for about 5 min, but most often I just turn on and go.
