I don't care how hot it gets, windows down all the way. I will take that fresh air any day. Unless I'm making a long trip on the highway, then I might use the A/C. Just last week it got to 99degrees here and it felt great with the windows down.

And superdak are you from Connecticut ^? Location says ct. If so, where at?

i probally have to recharge my a/c so i try not to use it alot. its really cold
but stops blowing after like an hour of driving. i like having my d side window
open all the time, cause i'm a redneck and like hanging out the truck on turns.
even when it rains, with the vent shades i got i can leave it open w/o the interior getting wet. def worth putting on.

It's A/C for me, especially since I can't notice enough of a mpg difference to put the windows down. In my car, I lose 7 mpg's with the A/C on.... windows down mostly there.

A friend at school has a 92 civic and if you turn on the a/c it's like it hits a wall. I'm not kiding, you can feel it. But once that VTEC kicks in... woooo she takes off. hahaha, I kid.

Haha with those pop-outs, It's like blowing over the top of an open pop bottle. The air waves lol.
I like to always have some sort of fresh air in my truck. Even with the A/C on, I have my back two open 2" to allow the hot air to escape rather than try to heat air that is 3-10* above ambient temperature (depending on the ambient temp and amount of sunshine)
