I think the Mythbusters episode on aircon vs open windows vis-a-vis fuel consumption should be required viewing for cabbies.

Given that most taxis are ex-PPD patrol cars, I'm betting that the A/C is simply shot.

It will be until Philadelphia starts replacing it's very, very old fleet with hybrids which will result in a fare increase. How refreshing is that now ?

Forget A/C, I'll settle for them moving the freakin' dividers 6 inches forward so I don't have to sit on an angle.
