Shy About 0W30 Oil?

^^^^^ yeah she is cute, just wearing too much clothes and we need her to be oiled up!!! Makes sense. I think that's a great promotion idea.
When say warm up, I am talking about operating temperature. You don't have to let your car sit, you can drive it normally. I believe the smoke your talking about, is some sort of condesation build up in your exhaust (water) from the change in teperature. Nothing to worry about.

Letting your car sit and warm up in my experiances is not as good as driving normally (not wot) to acheive operating temperature. At idle , the oil pump is barely turning enough to supply the engine properly. Start the vechile , drive it normally, after your at operating tempurature you can drive it enthusiastically

So whats the agreement if any? I always thought anybody using oil that has 30 in the end, can and in theory SHOULD USE 0w30. I myself am comtemplating using 0W30 later on once I finish my 12-pack of 5W30.
Its better to use 0W30 because...
- Easier flowability to internal parts during startup, lubing everything quicker. Because cold starts are where there is lots of wear and tear, why not minimize the chance of metal to metal contact? Use 0W30 and your internals will be lubed quickly than ever.
- Same weight at operating temperature, so its the same as 5w30, or 10w30.
Man I am probably going to use 0w30 later on.
