I would bet that if you ran your car's AC for a solid 18hrs a day, that it would eventually break. And you would then procede to get it fixed at your earliest convenience, right?? Would your not go to work until your AC got fixed? No, you would still go to work, and deal w/ the broken part as soon as you could.

Well, if it's my personal car and I'm the only one that has to use it, then you're absolutely right - I'd go without AC. Actually, my AC has been broken for about 9 months now...miserable, I tell you!!!
However, if I were looking for a rental car in Phoenix, and one place says "Come Use our Cars - They Have Air Conditioning!!!!!", I would expect Air Conditioning. If it only worked for 4 of the 5 days I was renting it, I want some money back. How do they know that air conditioning wasn't important to me?

It certainly wouldn't push me over into the "disgruntled Pan Am'er" category.

And therein lies an excellent point! Different people have different reasons to be disgruntled! Me? I'd be pissed about the AC. Some people might be pissed about the wait to get students.

You make a very good point. I would agree that if I got a rental car that said it had AC and it turned out that it didn't work, I would just request another car. I guess that when it comes to flying, I just don't put that much "need" on the AC, so I can deal w/o having it. A little sweat isn't going to kill anyone. I chose to train in Phoenix, of course it is going to be HOT!!
