I get that's how AC systems work. I'm just comparing two vehicles in exactly the same conditions (my commute hasn't changed in 5 years, and neither has Texas heat), and seeing two different results. I mean, if the 86's AC just isn't as good as a more "comfort-focused" vehicle, I can live with that. I just want to be sure it's not faulty.
