I run the a/c all the way out to Lansing and it stays between 1/4 and 1/2 and it's usually about high 80's low 90's, also in the summer traffic running the a/c it gets to 1/2, but usually not over it

not trying to prove you wrong or anything but it doesnt take the car longer to heat up. thermostat always stays closed until the engine hits its opening temperature which is 180 so its heats up at the same speed it just never reaches 210 like factory.
