The one in my Jeep is fairly good but it has actual units on it, the one in the Prelude and the Celicas are all pretty much garbage. The Prelude reads operating temp (about 2/5 on the gauge) well before it really gets there, the air is warm but not really very hot. The Jeep on the other hand had the thermostat actually shatter and it was impossible to get any heat in it, you could let it warm up for ages but 5 minutes on the road would suck it all out.
Back to the matter of warming up vehicles, you actually don't want to idle it too long just to warm it up. A minute or so is all you really need to get things flowing and then the best way to warm it up is to drive smoothly at low speeds until things are up to temp. In a 15-20 minute drive the car should have easily heated up fully either way, and it shouldn't be dropping in temperature when you're moving.
