Ok, I don't know about some of these. Anyone see the Myth busters prove that running AC does do a number on your mileage? They had a notable difference, and I've experienced the same. The drag was minimal.

Probably running the AC all the time in stop and go traffic does affect mpg's... but on a minimal level. I do believe, the biggest gas savings are with driving style, driving area, and driving conditions. In that order...

Cheers!
