Default Setting the A/C to 65

It may be just me but my 2012 fx's a/c works much better set on 65 then 60. Has anyone else thought this also?

It's sounds strange but it does work. I don't want the dealer working on it because I'm sure it will never work right once they start fiddling with it.

I found the 70 seem to work better also than 60. I will have to try 65 and see if it feels better than set at 70.

Same here, but I leave mine set to 70 and it cools down faster.

I've been trying to nail down why the A/C on my 12 KR EB behaves oddly as well. Some days my wife complains the passenger side is too cold and some days not quite cold enough.

Yesterday with temps outside around 95 and the A/C on recirc it not only kept up it cooled the interior very well yet today, temps roughly the same and it seemed to be struggling.

I'll be traveling about 60 miles each way tomorrow and I'll try it out. I'm guessing the temp sensors on these things behave oddly but I wish that when I set it to 60 it does it's best to get TO 60, like my 08 Accord. If I want auto temp i'll set the CC to auto.
