My mother had one of those years ago. We took a family trip in it from DC to Canada (via Cooperstown, NY) one summer. Shortly after we left the house, my mother insisted on using the a/c instead of keeping the windows down like my father wanted. I'll never forget my father throwing up his arms and belting out, "There goes the gas mileage! Arrgh!"

My mom had it for about a year...until a valet parker totalled it by driving it into a garage wall under full throttle.
