And oh yeah...way better performance with the 300 without sacrificing much in the way of fuel economy. Expect 25 to 28 from the 300 although I've heard of some who get in the 22 range. Depends of course on terrain and the way you drive.

The 240 I've gotten as much as 33 but was going a steady 60MPH on flat ground. Most times with the hills around here I'm in the 25 to 28 range.

A/C is quite a common problem. Expect over $1000 to fix it. MAY not be that much...might just need a leak fixed and a charge.
