re: What's worse: Vehicle with no heat in the winter or no AC during summer?

That had heat I'm guessing. Your body heat is not enough to heat up a car. You may as well be outside, granted with some sort of wind barrier. A breeze in your face will cool you down no matter what really. I'd rather take a hot one of those than just freezing my nuts off in a cold car.

This is how I decided not to move above the mason Dixon line. Had a job offer in Madison, Wisconsin. Mid October I rolled down the windows and felt a sub 50 degree breeze shoot through the car. First thoughts what the hell am I gonna do in mid January driving in a blizzard. Did not take the job. True story

No heat. The more layers don't matter when its below 30 degrees

Anyone who is saying no heat is better has not lived in a cold weather climate. No AC in August in New Orleans may suck, and result in some sweaty arse clothes, but it's manageable. No heat in January in Chicago is not doable.

No air conditioner in the Summer.

The heat went out multiple times and I was working nights on top a mountain in a remote location. I'd take that over no AC in swamp arse Louisiana every time.
ETA I kept my ski clothes in my jeep all winter. They warned me up no problem. Your arse doesn't stop stinking after you get in the AC.

For those who are spewing shite about living up north with no heat that wasn't a part of the question in the op. I am going to answer for what's best/worst for the climate I live in.
Now if the op wants to modify the parameters of the question . .

Where is said vehicle? That makes a difference

Whereever you live? I am guessing Texas here. Am I right?
Let me guess No AC?

No heat in the winter. I've done both for extended periods, and you can just roll down the windows when it's hot. Hot weather doesn't bother me at all. Cold weather sucks arse

no heat would be much worse IMO. i've actually driven in Louisiana for trips over an hour with no heater and it wasnt fun but was far from awful.
even with our mild winters i still hate the few minutes waiting on the heater to kick in more than anything

I want heat in Oregon. We don't get stifling heat so rolling down the window works.

My work truck has no ac, the summer is absolutely miserable. Even if I'm going 60 and have all the windows down that stale hot air does not cool me off. It was nearly impossible to get comfortable so I just got used to sweating my arse off everyday. No ac by far.

The answer to this question is completely dependent on your location. In southern Louisiana, give me the AC. If I'm in North Dakota though...
Posted on 11/24/15 at 2:32 am to FLBooGoTigs1
No a/c - i can put on a jacket in the winter, but can't strip down in the summer.
Posted on 11/24/15 at 2:47 am to FLBooGoTigs1
No heater. I HATE cold, and can tolerate 100+ all day long.
Posted on 11/24/15 at 4:32 am to FLBooGoTigs1
No heat means no defroster for your window.
Hard to drive if you cannot see.
