idling

I have a quick question, if I sit in my car idling watching a movie for 40 minutes is it bad for my car?

Are you a peeping Tom? Do they call it "watching a movie" now a days?

No its not bad for your car, just will use gas since you prob will have the A/C running as well. Me I would find a coffee shop or something to sit in while you do w/e it is u do.

lol, nice. I wouldn't even turn the car on except if it was hot out. The battery should last 40min no problem. I crank my radio up when i work on the car and it has a decent stereo in it and i haven't had any problems.
But now i know why the price of gas is going up again.
