A question just for MD before he unsubscribes. 
 
Anyone have any educated guesses on the effect on gas mileage of driving
with your windows open? 
 
Anyone have any Cd numbers for a Pantera or a 4-door sedan with the windows
closed and open? 
 
Anyone know how to convert those numbers into gas mileage? 
 
Had a 9 hour drive in the daily driver today with lots of time to wonder
about such important things. Hopefully I'll be able to sleep before getting
a good answer...
 
Thanks!
