no i dont use the a/c if its not hot, i do run around with the sunroof open though, ive read at high speeds thats a no no for fuel consumption. my car is regularly empty, i dont allow trash in my car, and i ask that everything be taken with you when you vacate. so it does stay empty 99% of the time. my tires are always properly inflated, though at the present moment i am in need of new or new used tires. ive looked under the car like you suggested, and i do not see anything hanging down or loose, so i guess that is a good thing. i try to be in the habit of staying a reasonable distance away from parking blocks and curbs so i dont have that issue. i do have another question though. i read somewhere that the holes in the wheels let in air which is not aerodynamic, is there anyway i can do anything about without buying new rims or wheel covers? i cant afford to spend an arm and a leg so im looking for possible solutions...need to think outside the box...or in this case, outside the car.
