i have to ask the question.....


why is it that benz cannot design and manufacture a car that doesn't fog its windshield when running the a/c in locales with high ambient relative humidity?

every one that i have ever owned, from my first benz, a 1973 220, through all the rest[1976 450sel, 1979 6.9, 1985 300e, 1986 560sel, 1987 560sec, 1995 e320cab, 1997 s500c] fogs the windshield when running the a/c in houston humidity.

i have owned and driven other vehicles over my 30+ years in metro-houston: lotuses, volkswagen scirrocco, honda crx, gmc yukon, cadillac sdv, ford tauri, honda accords, lexus s400, lexus g470. none of these vehicles has ever fogged the windshield.

what is it about areas of high ambient humidity that benz refuses to comprehend?

and it must be a benz thing. my friends who drive bimmers claim that they do not encounter the phenomenon. my friends who drive audis claim that they do not encounter the phenomenon.

why is it that benz refuses to eliminate this problem?

all ears.
