    My Truck usually freezes me if I keep the AC on high. This week however we have been having some extreme heat. I have noticed that when I'm stuck at traffic lights it seems to not cool as well the last few days.
    Wondering if I need some more fan power out front?

    So, the AC works more efficiently when the vehicle is moving, sitting at a light or in traffic during hot temps can make it feel warmer.

    Wow.

    And yet you bought it.

    Wait till you notice your seat gives you back pain on longer rides.

    Aw hell, it gets way too cold in the cab for my meat. I have to keep it in the bed to keep it from freezing. :rolleyes:

    When I left work today the official temperature was 91°, the dashboard temp indicator read 99° inside the Tacoma. I started the truck, turned on the AC, rolled the windows down and started driving. After going a half mile or so, I rolled up the windows having evacuated the hot stagnant air. At the first traffic light, I turned to the left in my seat to look for traffic before executing a right turn on red, my nipple scored the side glass and it broke and fell to the pavement.

    the a/c in my taco is the best a/c i've had in any vehicle i've ever owned. i do have an access cab. maybe the smaller cab makes it more effective.

    The fact that instead of seeing the humorous nature of the post, you were fantasizing about man boobs shows your problem

    Just bought a 2021 Tacoma SR5 TRD 2WD and it would have been nice to have a back seat vent, I live in South FL, hot, the A/C works fairly good but not as good as the A/C in my 2015 4Runner, which gets really cold. My truck is super white and I have dark tinted windows so that helps.
