Sironman,
Gee, See I actually agree with you, in principle leastwise.
BUT
(i) I understand the Physics of fogging/condensation incl the signifence of dirt forming a nucleus.
(ii) I understand how A/C works, and that cold air cannot carry as much moisture, and what the "recirc" symbol means and what happens when it is activated.
(iii) I also understand that if modern glass is thinner, in order to be lighter, that it will be a poorer thermal insulator, hence more prone to condensation.
(iv) I also understand that this thinner, but laminated glass, may however be as thermally insulating due to the inclusion of the plastic laminating film.
(v) I also drove other cars owned by myself for TWENTY years, i.e. from 1978 to 1998(& as stated above) and was not aware of a fogging condensation problem.
I always ask WHY?
Just like I asked WHY the auto trans had failed in the Steyr Puch,......... No reason I was told, they just fail>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DOH! ....................the flex pipe leading to the radiator had been twisted & kinked therefore no cooling of the transmission fluid.
There is ALWAYS a reason.
The reason can however sometimes be counterintuitive
And yes the reason could be down to the operator.
