Unless you fly down the autobahn on a regular basis, which I dont believe you are from Europe, it doesnt seem to be that big of a problem.

even when you are going a 100, you are not at the speed for very long (at least i'm not).

The AC compressor control is color=red]RPM [/color]dependent.
If the RPMs are above a certain point for too long,
the compressor un-clutches to prevent compressor over-rev
damage. There should be enough pressurized liquid before
the orifice/evaporator to get you thru the off cycle of the
compressor. Push it and the compressed liquid is gone and
the AC performance suffers.

Ya, super secret option from Ford only offered for 2 months in 2005

It really sucks air into the cabin when the windows are down/cracked too

I don't know about your area, but I would be worried about hitting a deer or some other critter late at night and doing some serious damage. I know it sucks at 70 and would be that much more dangerous at 100.

Also, whenever I've gone over 100mph, I already had the AC shut off as not to put a drag on the engine.

When you slow back down does the A/C get cold again?
