Default Re: Cooler weather = better mileage?

I get the BEST mileage in 70-80 degree weather and low humidity. I think the humidity makes more of a difference than the temperature; lower is better. I live in Baltimore, and the car performs less efficiently when the temperature and humidity are both close to 100 (most PEOPLE don't perform too well under those conditions either, ha ha.)

.

Hope is like a candle held against the night.
