I tested this on the highway today, My MPG drop by 1 to 1.1 MPG when first turning on the AC. Strangley, when the compressor cycled on/off, I still only had a .8 - 1 MPG loss. The cycling on/off didn't seem to lower/raise accordingly.

You beat me to the punch. I did the same thing just to see, and it hardly changed when the temperature seemed to be satisfied. Not sure what it means.Originally Posted by workmeistr

If you don't first THINK THINK, you could end up in deep DO DO!
