I have been looking under the car and have not noticed anything. The inside fealt dry as well. I am going to go to my parents house in the morning to use their garage to look around. I've got some other issues to look at as well. Cracked exhaust pipe, something odd with the breaks as well.

Thanks for the input

LOL..nice <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
just my two cents. Winter is rough out here, I'll tell ya. rain for two weeks with peoples homes washing away and now it's 80 and thinking of taking the dog to the beach! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Heh - I took my dog to the beach yesterday...of course it was frozen solid, especially since it didn't get above zero all weekend. Oh, and it was 54 below zero Monday night in northern Minnesota...warmer today, so of course 2" - 4" snow predicted tonight...But then I like snow, so that's a good thing. Hey, whatever floats yer boat <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

To review:

--- No leaks have been detected.
--- The carpet is dry.
--- The fogging wasnÆt caused by heavy breathing.



OK û So hereÆs one thatÆs straight out of Left Fieldà

--- On the morning in question, did you happen to take a particularly hot shower, and then get in the vehicle very soon after?


It is possible (I say again: possible) that this was nothing more than the residual moisture of a hot shower condensing on that bitterly cold windshield.


I am almost always rushed in the morning, and often find myself sitting behind the wheel of my Rodeo only a short time after having bathed. --- On these occasions, when itÆs extremely cold outside, all of my windows will fog-up almost instantly. (It happened earlier this week, when it was only 3-degrees.) --- The same could be true in this case.


Hey, itÆs a thought.

OK, ill try this one.

Well, those are pretty roomy in the back if you know what i mean. If this is the problem, all you have to do is crack the windows. lol <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> or make it a quicky

You should also consider upgrading your shocks. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Oh boy <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> look what three innocent words at the end of a post are leading to... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Good idea Smiley, but it wasn't from a shower. It happens after driving awhile. I did look for leaks and what not. I will admit I need to look harder and spend more time in my search, but it is real cold here. I am about to go out in a few minutes and look. I am waiting for an unexpected warm front, but in actuality it is only getting colder. Hopefully it is nothing, but I suspect something is not right.

As I was taking my parents to the airport my mom asked what was going on with the windows. And then my parents told me all about the fresh/recycle switch and when to use which <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> I told them there is something awry and I was familiar with the workings of the lever. Oh well I am going to pull my rodeo in to the garage after I brush it off. I can't see out of the windows right now because of the snow, I think I will go play before my search starts

Way too cold outside for anything other than driving the rodeo <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

That would explain why my windows don't fog up. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

The "driving a while then it fogs up even with the fresh air on" still leads me to think there's some sort of problem with the fresh air selector. Either that or you need to stop breathing while driving. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

Try this.
1. Run outside and start the vehicle
2. Put it on "High heat" and "Fresh Air" (you know, the NPR show with Terry Gross)
3. Go watch TV for 30 minutes while it warms up.
4. Go outside. With no one in it, and fresh air coming in, are they fogged up?

Now, if they are fogged it could be from moisture in the car that was there before and melted with the heat on. Boots full of snow/ice, snow/ice into floor mat, hot air from heater blows on mat and evaporates, then condenses on 20degF windows.

5. Crack the windows an inch or two and defog with high heat.
6. Back inside for more TV. Man it's cold.
7. Get Mom and some perfume.
8. Run to your Rodeo and get inside. Roll up the windows and put it on recirc.
9. Have mom stand out in the cold and spray perfume by the windshield intake.
10. You might smell it faint (it's not air-tight), but not strong.

11. Now switch to fresh air (See your paper for your local NPR station)
13. Remind a cold and angry mom that you're doing this because she's the one that pointed out there was a problem. That'll go over well. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
12. Have angry mom spray perfume again.
13. You should smell it strong.

If you don't, then your flapper isn't opening (nor not opening all the way) to let fresh air in.

Hope this helps. Let us know the results. Word to your mother! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
