I would suggest getting some type of carpet, even if it is only one of those carpet squares that have some insulation on the bottom, as a temporary measure to make things feel warmer. From reading the thread, it seems your system is working properly, but you not only have mother nature against you, but also air fighting general issues with air. Just me 2 cents.
I would tend to agree. I guess my concern is that the air blowing from the vents is not very warm, especially when moving. It's apples to oranges, but my daily driver puts out extremely warm air once the vehicle is up to operating temp. I will need to put a temp gauge on it to provide a more accurate reading.
