According to Google Maps, the guy they're chasing is about an hour from the state line. That's probably as far as he gets.

To be honest this is probably the most interaction we've had with a car chase beyond that .gif posted from the last spike strip.
So this is the one that got away huh?
Should have used that spike strip.

So the guy isn't running A/C so that they can conserve the gas I'm going to assume. Which is why the windows are down?

Good stuff, playing them all at once simultaneously.

So when did this start?

That or he's just enjoying the weather at the expense of mileage.

I am thinking so but the drag from having the windows open is nulifing that difference I would assume.

No one's found a live feed yet? Fox replay just went down. Maybe they're about to come back live.
Using A/C wastes less fuel than driving with the windows down. Due to the aerodynamics introduced at freeway speeds, having the windows down creating drag = less fuel efficient than running the A/C. In a modern car, A/C barely uses anything extra.

Fox went down but it's back up for me.

How modern of a development is this? I have a 2001 CRV and on hills we have to turn off the A/C otherwise the car isn't powered as much and it struggles to climb it.

Your problem is that you don't have a powerful car to begin with...

But I must know how it ends.

It's over. Stu was gold, but he's been ordered home.
That's because your '01 CRV has a gimpy B20 motor, a gutless 2.0L that barely has enough torque to push water downhill. A/C is a major parasitic drag on the engine because it's so small.
Also a totally different scenario. That's a high load situation (lots of throttle being used), cruising on the freeway is very light throttle (10-20%, maybe 5% if you're in a Vette lol) at steady state. Huge difference.
LOL, it's all a publicity stunt!
