Windows Down VS Air Conditioning

Basically, windows down is more efficient when travelling slower than 60 mph. If travelling 60 mph or faster then its more efficient to use air conditioning.

How Often to Car Wash

Lol I don’t do this.

• “Once A Week: If you frequently face dust, dirt, or bird droppings, then you should certainly opt for cleaning your car once a week”
• “Once A Month: If you do not face factors such as regular droppings, dirt, and dust, or if you do not use your car often, then once a month is a wise choice. It will maintain your car and provide it with proper care. Overall, once a month, car wash is suitable for lesser-used vehicles that are not exposed to degrading agents consistently.”
