It takes between 3 and 5 seconds after asking a politician a question until the hot air begins to flow.

Seriously though. I live in the boonies and it is 2.5 miles to the first stop sign from my driveway. By the time I get to that stop sign unless it is the dead of Winter, I'm getting some warm air. By the time I get to the end of my 22 mile one way commute I'm getting serious hot air if the ACC is asking for it.

Since I have no way of knowing what year and model car you are referring to, I can't take it any further.
