That's right, don't do a heap of short trips around suburbia; I learnt this from Holden more than a decade ago: the V6s don't like it. I only do long-distance driving with mine. For suburbia I use an MTB, the bus, the train or walking.
Short trips will also shorten the battery life. I know an crusty old codger in my old home-town of Castlemaine (Victoria) who drives his VY Commodore 100 metres from the garage to the letterbox... "because I can!". It burns oil, makes a loud noise, has bald tires and the exhaust is rusted away...
