The coolant warms up within a couple of minutes and remains fairly consistent afterwards while oil generally takes 5 or so miles of soft driving to get oil to reach operating temperature. What I do is let the car idle for 30 seconds to let oil pressure drop a little and take it easy for the first 10 minutes of the drive. An oil pressure gauge would really be helpful in deciding which method is best here
