I am sure when Andrew mentions going "up hill", he is referring more in
terms of the hills of Colorado, meaning more like mountains. Going
uphill means miles of straight 5-10% uphill grade, the stuff that
separates out cars. It has been a while since I cruised I-70 heading up
the Rockies but I remember many cars could not even reach the speed
limit of 70 mph going up.

My VW Golf does not get effected much by running the A/C. There is
absolutely no need to switch off to go up even a real steep hill
