when your drivin, is it windows down or do you use the a/c? I mostlly go with the windows down unless the heat is crazy. Also, does using the a/c really burnmore gas?
 
Arizona in the summer... You better have the A/C blastin.. even with the windows down you still cant breathe..

A/C on the highway. When I get into the car, I do drive with both the windows down and A/C on though. German cars got the weakest A/C, takes 1 hour to cool thecabin, smh.

you do know windows down in the highway burns just as much gas
 
I've heard the moment you hit 40 MPH+ it's better to have the windows and AC on because the wind resistance burns more gas than AC does.
 
I never put my car windows down so a/c for me.

Didn't Mythbusters busted the myth that a/c uses up more gas?
Or that at least it is not significant enough to make a big difference?

Drag coefficient FTL. Not to mention that it's loud as hell with the windows down on the highway.

So true, my Mercedes spits hot air for 15 minutes untilthe cold air finally comes out, it feels like I'm suffocating on hot Miami days.

Simply because it doesn't drain the car of ~25% of it's power like the A/C does, making the caraccelerate super slow.

True but it all depends on the car. Its hardly impossible to know which speed to roll ya windows up.

For me: Climate control all day
