Thanks Wayne for another good tip.
So far I've "weathered" temps up to about 87.
Haven't really noticed it too much durring the drive but oddly enough
I do feel really hot after I arrive and enter the cool building.

I keep a dry towel on the center console to keep the armrest clean and
sometimes an occasional brow wipe.
On days when I have passengers I'll work the A/C button.

This is only May....I'm sure I'll remember your tip come June-September.

Now that the spring rain storms have FINALLY arrived I'm battling foged up
windows in the HCH which requres the A/C compressor to clear.
This is 100% more frustration than not using A/C to cool.
Wiping the dense condensation off of the windows is not a practical option.
I never counted on this new twist.

Wind, heavy rain, standing water and AARG defroster is trashing
my otherwise high MPG and I hate it.
