Driving conditions in Arizona
Summer temperatures well over 100°F put constant load on air conditioning, cooling systems and batteries, and heat ages rubber hoses and seals faster.
Dry heat shortens the life of batteries, hoses, belts and plastic cooling-system parts, and the air-conditioning compressor works for most of the year. A plan that includes air conditioning and the cooling system is worth more here than in a mild climate.
