can we please just stop with the bitching about gas. Between gas bitching and people turning in to hippie enviro-nuts these days... I am close to snapping.
hmm..last i checked...my post wasnt saying "i cant afford gas"...it was a simple question "does ac on affect gas mpg"...if you consider that bitching then you should go ahead and jump off a cliff.....

Sometimes I drive with the A/C on and the windows and sunroof open 
Sometimes I like to feel the wind and/or listen to the exhaust, but it's too cold/hot outside to actually have the windows down
(And even if it's cold outside, I leave the A/C on with the temp turned up, cuz otherwise it gets really humid in the car)

Your A/C does not affect your gas mileage what so ever.. there have been numerous tests done on this subject. As stated above Mythbusters just had a show with this subject and once again the same test results came back.

The A/C does however, KILL your performance... The car will be very sluggish.
