We did use the air conditioning both ways but what crap.
We still love the car tho. It's just different looking without being ugly or weird looking like all the small newer CAR-TRUCK-WAGON morphed looking cars.

Forget about using the dash guage telling you your mileage. It doesn't work close enough. Best way is figuring miles divided by gallons.
