Do you sit and let your car warm up before driving it,

OR

do you just throw it in gear and go?

thats a myth about waiting for your car to warm up. However that may be true in the older vehicles. Honestly, ya it takes a while for the oil to throw up and lubricate but it is not long enough before it does and neither is it long enough for it to overheat
