A thermo-plate may help your situation but, as TerribleONE says, it takes a while for the oil to warm up. 2-4 miles just ain't far enough to get the engine warmed up good.

You don't have to baby a modern engine with modern oil when it's cold but you don't want to be going WOT until it warms up, either.
