Sounds like there has to be solution somewhere. So there is no way to direct the flow of air to the feet, head, or dash?

There is the option to "defrost" the windshield. Nothing else.

Ditto this with one exception. I have tinted widows so ammonia based cleaners are kind of out for me. Take a woman's pump hair spray bottle and fill it will ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL. You can mix it with water but I do it w/ straight alcohol. I personally use news paper. Clean the windows until you hear the window squeek. Like Nuke said, then clean them again. You will be amazed at how clear & clean they come. Not ripping you OLD MAN! Just found what works for me and this is also what a lot of professional detailers do to clean them. It is also how the window tinters clean and prep your windows for tinting. Nuke I call you an olod man because at this point in life, anyone who is 15 minutes older than I am is an old man. Makes me feel better about myself.

My rear fogs/frosts/mists up all the time when it's cold out. I just turn on the rear window defroster and it clears up right away.

I agree with others...the windshield on my 2010 GT vert fogs more than any other vehicle I've had. One thought I had looking at the fogging pattern is it's much worse right around the raised center cowl portion of the hood . I don't think there's a good seal under this raised portion of the hood and warm moist air leaks out of the back of the hood and causes the windshield to fog.

I discovered that there is an AC button! I can turn it on and the climate control stays in "Auto" mode. It seems to make some difference in cabin humidity, but not enough to let me start driving without the rear defogger.
