Yeah, that's the thing. I know it has two sensors and it's supposed to be intelligent, but it seems to have received a lobotomy at some point in time. For example, the other day I was driving around with the windows down and it was about 60 out (cold down here in the south) with lots of air circulation/turbulence. I set the temp dial to about 80-85*f and it was NOT blowing warm air...it was probably blowing around 70ish. But crank it the extra 5 degrees to 90 and it blows super hot.

Just have to learn the quirks it seems. It's like getting a new girlfriend...
