Always window down, unless I'm in the old girl and above constant 80, window goes up and the vents open, usually at my feet, the commodore it window down no choice.
But window down is generally only just open, not all the way down

Windows up, climate control on all the time. Being a statesman driver, my car is all about luxury so I prefer to be in my own little "sanctuary" sealed off from the riff raff of the outside world. Besides my car looks better with the windows up.

My rule of thumb:

10 degrees or lower - Windows up, heater on low

10-16 degrees - windows down, heater on footwell

16-30 degrees - Windows down, maybe A/C on in the footwells for a little relief.

30-45 degrees - Windows up, A/C on


I try to have the windows down as much as possible, I love the fresh air and the wind in my hair......and the V8 sound track hehe

If I'm just going down the road, I'll generally have the windows down. However on longer drives, or in the middle of Summer, the AC goes on.
