If you're going to be driving on dusty dirt roads in the summer as I do, you'll want to keep the windows and hatch closed, or else the dust will get everywhere inside. This is when you'll really need the A/C. I turn off the A/C on some steep mountain grades, but on some notorious uphill stretches of southwest desert interstates, I found it necessary to turn off the A/C, open all the windows, and turn the heaters on full blast (whew!) just to keep the temp guage from going critical, as the radiator fan's high speed wasn't enough. -- Brian Kraft <bhkraft@gj.net> Grand Junction, Colorado '86 Westy GL Syncro
