funny, its not that bad in my ST. i do get worse gas milage with it on but that goes with every car. when i have the ac on, i turn it off when i am at a light because the lights around here take forever to change. i turn it on again after i get moving so that air actually passes through the condenser and it doesnt get heat soaked.
on my last tank of gas(used the ac alot) i drove 360 miles and filled up the tank with 13 gallons making for about 27.7mpg all city driving to my normal 29mpg. besides, you can always pull a 2-60 -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
