Default How many of you use the Auto Air Recirculation mode?

That's one of the climate controls I don't really get. Manual says they recommend using it as much as possible. Does that mean leave it on all the time? I never use it and wonder if I'm missing out on better air...

Then again, we don't have smog in Vermont, just the smell of cow dung.

Default I usually keep the whole CC off unless its ridiculously hot or cold. If it is on, I go with Econ...

unless I'm in a potential fog up condition in which case I go with Auto. I don't recall ever touching the recirc button though.

I perfer to ride windows/roof open in the hot and and heated seat only in the cold.

Oh and the smell of cow dung has long since lost its effect on me, growing up less than a half mile from a fairly large dairy farm. We even had some cows of our own, I think at most 10 or 15 though. Yay VT!

Default Do you have a brother named Neverfollow01?

Nah,....never really use the recirculating button. I like to keep a constant follow of fresh air coming into my car and never want the same air flowing around. Especially after I hit up taco bell.

Default I use it only in the summer, once the interior has cooled down a bit.

Now that it's winter, it is not to be used.
