Weird startup...
Do your cars startup differently when you haven't driven your car for a while? Whenever i'm done driving the car for the day and start it up the next morning it takes a little longer to crank up, and the car drives a little differently until I start driving it a little. Is this normal for cars that aren't warmed up or something? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I'd say it's quite normal bro. The car needs some warmup b4 it'll act normally and that includes engine, tires, brakes, steering, tranny shifting -- everything.
And the colder the climate, the more noticeable the affect. Up here in the 'Tundra', some of that stuff on the car freezes in November and doesn't warm again 'till April. I hate winter [img]/w3timages/icons/frown.gif[/img]
Ignition when the engine is warm will be a little quicker than with a cold engine, but not much different.
