If I’m supposed to drive with my windows up, when am I supposed to open my sunroof? When do I drop the top on my convertible? Do you see how stupid you sound?

It seems dumb because you’re inducing a lot of aerodynamic drag. Plus 70mph winds in your face gets annoying after a while.


That's your problem, get it up to 90+ and your mileage will improve drastically to the point you are creating fuel.

Above 45 or 50 mph you're using more gas due to drag than by a/c




Unless you go 120 mph. Uses half the gas.

I know people who love to open windows driving down the road, regardless of the fact they have AC. I personally dislike it but it seems kinda popular
