Arrow Video: Fuel Economy Decrease with Opened Windows

It's a timeless question. Is it more fuel efficient to run air conditioning in a car on the highway, of have the windows open at speed? Well I don't have air conditioning in my car, but amazingly the Geo comes standard with opening windows!

See how much of a fuel economy loss occurs with opened windows at 50 miles per hour (I apologize in advance about my hyperness in the video):



Feel free to discuss.
