How do you know it's cold? Starter goes into slow mode when cranking. Seems to happen around 20F or below. I do wish the IS warmed up faster, I can do my 15 min drive to work doing 60 mph at times and not warm up fully before getting to my destination..

Man, it's a full time job keep you guys in the warmer climates honest. We're talking LOW temperatures in this thread -- low last night in Ft. Lauderdale/Miami was 47 degrees.
