For my 2019 Chevy, that is 100% true. Unlike the house where the a/c is an all or nothing option, the truck will blow air the temperature shown on the thermostat.

If you get in the truck in a 100 degree day it will not cool off the interior any faster if the temp control is set to 60 or 68. If it is set to 60 it will eventually cool to that temp but it will not reduce the temperature any faster from 100 to 68.


If you get in a truck in a 100 degree day it will absolutely cool it off quicker pumping 60 degree air into it vs 68 degree air.

Think of it like this: you have a 10oz cup of 120 degree coffee. You add 2oz of 70 degree water. I have a 10oz cup of 120 degree coffee and add 2oz of 50 degree water. Is our coffee the same temperature now? No. The temperature of the input changed the results.




This entire convo proves even males do not understand a thermostat. A truck typically has an AC setting or manual setting………..
