it ain't just kids. I caught my ex-wife starting my diesel pickup in -45°, letting it idle for an hour, loading one garbage bag in it, backing up 30 feet to the street to set the bag at the curb, then going 30 feet forward and shutting it off. Now to do this, she had to go out twice in the cold instead of once. She likely took years off its life starting it in weather that cold, burned a gallon or two of fuel at over $3/gallon back then, had to unplug the block heaters and battery blankets, then plug them in again when she was done. All in all, it was FAR more work than walking 60 feet. And she wonders why she's now an ex!
