Auto with no AC.

Because it controls the fan speed automatically, but I don't need cooling or de-humidifying.

Although, lately I've been using the Auto AC a bit more also.

Recently I noticed that Econ cools me just as good as Auto A/C, so when it's hot I now use Auto Econ A/C. When it's not hot or humid, I use manual and usually open my windows.

Can you even do that? I thought I tried one time but because you're turning off the a/c it becomes manual. Damn I need to try again.

Manual. Auto/econ cannot survive in Florida, and tries to run at 110% the whole time. My poor, poor a/c...

Manual....

I like it blowing as cold as possible (60) and to control the air pressure/blowing speed myself.
i.e. if im hot i have it blow air harder, if i'm cold i turn the air speed/pressure to the lowest speed.

May just be my city, but i like the way it changes the air on cold a/c.
it makes it LESS humid and smells fresher.

Yeah you can, at least on the 06 you can. Not sure about the other years. You put it in auto and just hit the AC button to turn off the AC. The system still stays in auto.

Auto Econ because it turns the A/C on the fastest to rid the car of the desert El Paso heat
