I was using mpg data as a point of comparison. Granted, I'm comparing a Prius to a Jetta. But the "A/C penalty" for the Jetta was about 12% worse fuel economy. For the Prius, the A/C penalty seems to be closer to 15%.
But I have to admit, that comparison was based on only 2 fillups in the Prius. So maybe I jumped to a conclusion. This latest fillup seems to be closer to 12% A/C penalty.
Side note: If I can reach 60 mpg with the A/C running all the time, that would be awesome! With the latest fillup coming in at 57.5 mpg, that might actually be feasible.
