Default A/C or no A/C?

How many still have their A/C on their R?
I still have mine. Just way too hot and humid in Alabama to go w/out A/C.

A/C. Summer in my area = sauna; pure misery without aircon. Forget it.

I drove a car without A/C back in 1997. It felt like working on a road paving project.

Definitely AC. I've driven a car before that didn't have AC and I always told myself I would always have AC for those hot days.

No A/C. Don't need it up here when it only gets very hot two or three weeks a year.

ditto that. but I'm in ATL, GA.

the turbo keeps me warm in winter, and the ac keeps me cool in summer.

i also enjoy my power steering.

i have no a/c in my car at the moment and last night it rained really hard, i had to park the car and sit ( for about 30 mins.), my windows got fogged up sooo bad i couldnt see at all, as soon as i wiped the glass it fogged right back up, you need a/c to be able to drive in the rain at all. i getting it put back on tomorrow that **** was dangerous!!!

I don't have it. At first it wasn't all that bad but it was really embarrassing last time i took a girl on a date during the day. she was like "No a/c? WTF?!". Ive just gotten use to cooking like a turkey in an oven.

I know alot of guys here in Bama that take their A/C off completely. Some have even thrown the whole system in the trash. I just don't know why being it's miserably humid here in the summer but, oh well it's their ride and not mine.
Unless I ever have a car thats track only and gets toted around on a trailer, it's going to have A/C!

I left the AC in mine.

The wife appreciated it during parade laps at Expo.

It may come out soon though.

You know i never use mine, cause i prefer rollin with the windows down. I however think its nice to have for those "omgoodness 100% humidity wtf i am melting" days outside. You get those in the NorthEast from time to time.

&lt;---might use the A/C in the geezer 10 times a year.

Oh... it is however very useful for when it rains out. Sometimes without A/C it seems next to impossible to get rid of those foggy windows on rain days.

No AC. Texas humidity is sometimes up to 50% on a normal day.
