I agree that his snow problem is easily solved......but what I'm confused about is the condensation story.......is he saying that the condensation problem happens when the vents are plugged with snow?( I'm hoping that is the case ) OR is he saying anytime it rains the condensation forms? That would be a real problem and I assume we would have heard more people comment on that!

[QUOTE=boxboss;2085695]It wouldn't matter if the vents were plugged. You need to remove the moisture from the interior of the vehicle to prevent condensation and/or fogging. Turning on recirculation elimates outside air entering via the vents. Recirc on, compressor on...plugged vents or not, the interior air will dehumidify.[/QUOTE
That would be my assumption as well ....... unless there is something wrong with the vehicle. ]
