Windows fogging up
I have 2 Hondas with the same problem (an Odyssey and a Civic): the windows
regularly fog up in the fall/winter. When one puts on the defroster, it's
"AC On." If it's like regular air conditioning, this means the gas mileage
drops. I've even tried the "anti-fog" solution, but that doesn't work well.
Any ideas? Please feel free to email me directly.

Don't be so stingy! An accident because you didn't see something
coming because of fogged up windows will cost a lot more than a little
bit of gas! And you do leave the outside air vent open don't you?

Changing the air flow from Recirculated to Fresh as previously suggested may
help. However, there is an anti-fog solution that works which is
inexpensive and which you may already own. Note that this really works but
you may wish to try it out on bathroom mirror to see if you like the effects
before trying it out on your car windows. Wipe your mirror/window with
shaving cream and buff it dry with a soft dry towel. Do not use any water.
The shaving cream will leave a coating on the glass which will prevent water
from beading up. This has lasted for a couple of weeks for me on my
bathroom mirror. The mirror will get a slight haze to it after a while
however this can be removed by using a soft dry towel. Note that the glass
can be cleaned with windex or some other cleaner to remove any trace of the
shaving cream coating (which also removes the anti-fog effect).
I should also note that I've never tried this on a car window, however I
think that it would work for the front and rear window and any others which
don't roll down.
