Guess with a full grill block and hot air intake, you'd rather keep the heat on to regulate engine temp to the optimum. Especially so in the summer season.

When driving through a 500 foot section with 6" of snow blown across the road, and everyone else is worried about getting stuck, you're worrying about how that will hurt your fuel economy.
