I do not get the flashing yellow of t/c on my roads.
"over the course of months" the weather is the same. I live in so cal... the lowest it gets in the winter is 60 degress.
And over the couse of months, my average mpg has been higher by two with t/c off. During ALL months since I have purchased the car. (October)
Nit pick it all you want, this is what I have noticed. I can't exactly explain it, but there is my data. Try it yourself... The worst that happens is you gain mpg.
