For shots of cool air hit the ac when you have to slow down, max cool, high fan, resirculate, then kill the ac when you come out of dfco, it's free like that and the cool evaporator will give you cooler air for a little while, then go back to fresh natural flow.

That's exactly what I do in the Turtle! I hit the AC button as I'm slowing, and the mpg meter stays maxed at 150 even with the AC blasting and the IMA charging.
I'll also run it for a couple of minutes at a time if I'm on a long stretch, and I can still average 70 mpg while cranking the AC (just not the 100 mpg with it off)
