This is the most niche r/cars sticky I've ever seen. :P

Before you do it, check the laws in your city. In one of the suburbs near me, it's illegal to leave a vehicle running unattended for longer than 3 minutes. That includes in a private driveway. In the winter, the patrol the neighborhoods and will ticket and sometimes tow anything they find idling with nobody in the car.
