I start mine up and drive off, without warming it up. I drive about a mile and a half to the freeway every morning (pretty much take it easy during this time), then I drive normally the rest of the way to work.
Of course, it rarely even gets down to freezing around here and I park in the garage, so YMMV.

With all my vehicles, I pretty much start, put seatbelt on, then wait a few seconds until valve clatter has been silenced by oil flow. I move off slowly keeping RPM below 2K for the first mile or so, then normal driving thereafter.
