Air Con and MPG

Best way to be :thumbs:

 

I used to run with the a/c off in the Zed for most of the time, but on the Pork I leave it on all the time. I have no idea why my attitude has changed, if anything you;d have thought it would be the other way around trying to save a few pennies to run the more expensive car! :lol: It's always on in my truck though, that thing steams up so quickly otherwise for some reason.

Totally agree on the condensation :thumbdown:

 

So it's Air Con on pretty much all the time for me as I said...

 

Also agree on the poor MPG round London, I did a 30 mile trip to RT Performance today and look what I got :scare:

Glad that isn't my daily commute, mainly as I would need 2 jobs to pay for it and would have to leave 2hrs early to get to work on time :surrender:

I never have my air con on apart from in the summer when we occasionally get a hot day. I get between 27-31 mpg and that is a mixture of eco driving on motorway and around town. My dailly commute is 40 mile so I have to drive economically. At the weekends I probably get well below 20 mpg lol. Cant say I have seen any difference when the air con is on though!
