- nohurryExplorerPossibly in the older trucks it pulled from what valuable HP you had, I use to turn it off on hills in my old trucks, but like so many other areas, the new trucks are light years ahead. I use it whenever needed now and notice no difference.
- The days of not running the AC while towing were over probably 30 years ago or more...go ahead..... Turn it on and tow cool !!!!!
- BB_TXNomadHave towed with mine on full blast with temps as high as 108. When in Texas AC is a daily thing from May thru Sept, towing or not.
- colliehaulerExplorer IIIIf it's warm I run mine.
- dave17352ExplorerYes as others have said if its hot it on. I probably does put a tiny bit of strain on the motor but not enough to amount to a hill of beans.
- Jack_Diane_FreeExplorerAlways run A/C when towing. Makes no difference.
- mbuttsExplorerIf it's hot outside, the A/C is on.
