That's funny, because most people's MPG will go down, due to the temperature drop
I've always felt that as long as there's some decent airflow, the temperature doesn't really matter too much. When I lived with my parents, my room was in the attic of an old Victorian house, so the winters were extremely cold, and the summers were extremely hot. I dealt with the winters with blankets, and the summers with a fan blowing at high speed right on my face. Maybe it only works when sleeping, because you're not really doing anything, but it worked for me.
I took out the AC in my car, and blast the fans when it's hot, but my 20 mile commute doesn't make me too sweaty when I get out of the car, since it's mostly highway.
How much time does each trip take in your commute?
