I'm just watching Mythbusters and that was the test, AC ON or windows down is better for fuel economy.
2 tests performed.
test 1:
Drive the SUV at 55MPH windows up ac on at 11.7MPG
Drive the SUV at 55mph windows down got 11.3MPG
test 2:
drive two identical SUVs with the exact same pay load and exact amount of fuel. 5gallons. Drive at 45MPH
SUV with AC on run out of fuel faster. the SUV with windows down drove 15 more miles before it ran out of gas.
weird eh?
so what could of caused the two different results. I was always told to drive with windows up/AC on to save gas.
Thanks Mo
