True..... A/C is a real power hog.....I've tested it on our M103 a couple times and its like dragging an anchor (especially with the 2nd gear start).....I fear what the mpg's are with that turned on during a regular basis....  Once the engine is over 2000rpm you can't tell that its on though.
Our Rav4 is massively slowed down by the A/C....its 240d style with it on.
