So I use the remote start on my truck usually about 2-3 times a day, and yesterday I got to thinking that maybe that's bad for my truck. Does anyone know how much is too much to use the remote start?

I assume it's okay to use it once a day, at the start of the day to let the truck warm up so I don't have to drive it on a cold start. But I don't know if it's bad to use it more than that.

Any input is much appreciated!

I wouldn't see it becoming an issue. It doesn't hurt anything its just the computer starting it instead of you

Remote start on my friend! Sometimes I forget I have it, it's nice to hear the engine from outside the truck once in a while.

I doubt you would have any problems. It's there to use. Remote start to your heart's content! :)
