libs have been programming themselves for that for a while now.
I remember having to hitch a ride from a lib in a geo metro. 10 minutes in to our ride I could see the temp gauge at normal temp but it was still freezing in the car.
When asked the idiot to turn the heat on he said “wastes energy, leave it off to save gas”..
I thought about explaining to him that heat is created by the engine, even a tiny as it was, it would continue to create more and by not using the heater in the car the car will simply dump the heat out of the radiator under the hood.. but.. I figured it was pointless. I just froze my ass off the next 15 minutes of the drive.
Yes, he even scraped the ice off the INSIDE of the windshield.
Wow. Just wow.
Unfortunately there is not a little ignorance about basics of energy supplies and vehicle technology here at FR as well, as we see in this thread.
