Warmup is indeed different then any other vehicle I've owned (but I have only been driving for 48 years or so). It is engraved in my head that the temp guage has to start going up (t-stat open) before any measuable heat can be obtained, always been that way 
.
Reality is heater is quite quick in supplying warm even on a cold day as long as it is turned up on high and fan (as others suggest) on slower speed. On a few cool days this winter it has taken 15 mins and 10~~>12 miles for temp gauge to get to normal place, but I've been well warmed long before that in cabin, thats what really matters.
