Turn cruise control on and hit the resume/accel button (I believe that is the correct one) and it will bump up the rpms until 1200 rpm is reached. You can also have it flashed on at a dealership to do it automatically when its is cold enough.

want it to warm up faster in the morning when I start it, tired of having to set at high idle with exhast brake on for up for 20-30 minutes to get enough heat to clear the frost of the windsheild
