The ac in my 08 f150 work truck sucks, I think the compressor clutch is going out in it. If I floor it in park sometimes it will catch and start blowing cold. The ac in my wifes 09 civic doesn't blow nearly as cold as my never-touched(ac wise that is lol) going on 11 year old truck

Although I probably shouldn't be talking **** about my company truck since I'm parked on the jobsite with the ac on max while the guys are huddled under a small tree waiting for concrete

Ha ha nice. I always try to park to where my windshield is AWAY from the sun that way the light has to go thru my tint and isn't as bad. Other wise I park in the shade.

Main thing I want to make sure is that my garage ot my future house is badass lol

Hah that's awesome, I need to get a mod to do that as well. I have actually never turned my AC up to full blast, even living in southern AZ...never needed it.
