You drive with your AC blowing hot air?

No, I drive with the AC blowing cold air during the summer, hence having the knob in the blue, Then in the winter, when it gets cold I turn it to the red so it warms up inside my car.

But remember, there's also a fan setting, and an AC setting. If you've got the just the fan on, blowing cold air, I don't think the AC is on. But if you've got the AC on, blowing hot air, it is.

Car looks sweet with the steelies. I don't think you should remove the wing, I happen to like it, but you're gonna do what you're gonna do.

Who? I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I've heard of a lot of people that drive around with their AC on in the winter because the controls are dumb.

Its a two car garage, but my parents park in it. I'm allowed to use it when I need to work on the car though, all my tools and stuff are in there. If it were my bay...there would be a lift in it for sure LOL

Theres a 2 stall at my house, my sisters neon and her fiance truck are goin in it for the winter. So, anything I have to do is done outside. Hopefully it warms up a bit, I need to do a coolant flush/thermostat and I need an oil change.

The AC compressor comes on anyway when you set the direction knob to defog. It dries the air.

That's the way my car looks most of the time

Winter mode = warming up the car to not freeze your ass mode.
