Both vehicles are identical in every way, they will be travelling at the same speed on the same road. The only difference will be that it is a hot day to be in the four doortruck, so one vehicle has all the windows open and the A/C is off. The second truck has all the windows up but the A/C is on. They both have 5 gallons of gasoline in their tanks. Who will run out of gas first.

I've noticed I get better mileage on my 1500 with the AC off. I do leave the windows open however.

Considering mileage, it's strange but my old 1983 Honda Civic 1300FE got better mileage than my 1500 does. I get a laugh at all the folks around here who think the hybrids are a great deal and they don't get the mileage my old Civic did without all the complication and expensive batteries.
