You're right. Just because the needle on the water temp gauge reaches it's "usual" spot, it doesn't mean the engine is fully warm. If you compare oil vs. water temps, you would see that it still takes a few minutes longer for your oil to reach it's operating range.

The problem was not with what you said, it was with how you said it. Instead of being rude, you could have posted that 30 seconds is not long enough for warming up the engine (then given supporting facts explaining why), or asked for clarification about his methods of warming up the vehicle.

See, that wouldn't have been so hard, would it?
