| Just my opinion, but I hope they move the "temp" down to the big screen and put the time up there. When your traveling at night and don't want ambient light, it's nice to turn off the big screen. You problably only adjust your temp once or twice per outing, however, you often look at that clock. This is minor I know, but I just got back from a 6 hour road trip (the MDX was GREAT!) however, the temp readout was of no use, and I had to look at my wrist or turn on the big screen to see the time. Anyway, I still think the MDX rocks! |

| I agree. When the mdx came out in 2001 and I read about it in Car and Driver, the first thing I noticed was the temp controls above the nav system. I thought it was a bad design and I still think its a bad design. I wouldnt want them in the nav system but maybe they could move it down. |

| Agreed. Especially as the climate control is so excellent. You literally set it and forget it. |

You're KIDDING! I think the temperature control is atrocious.:28: BUT -- I like the air blowing on my face and that air is what I want to be a constant temperature. The system isn't designed for that, it's designed to keep the average interior temp constant. I imagine that those who like the temperature control are those who don't have the air blowing on their faces/bodies. True, or false? |

Somewhat true. I only like the air blowing on me when I first get in a hot/cold vehicle. After it cools down (or warms up) the air is not important, or it can be a negative.
I just set mine on full auto and it seems to do a great job for me. Blows real hard on a hot day when first getting into the X. Then it slows down after it cools down the enterior. |

| I think Honda does a great job with the climate control - all honda products I have owned cool down or heat up real nice. |

On the '03 models, the clock has been moved to the radio--so, you should be able to turn off the big screen and still see the clock down near the radio. |

Only with nav which unfortunately they don't trust us with in the North. Otherwise a great cooling/heating system IMO. |

Mr. Wazowski,
You said the O3 models have the clock in the radio. Mine does not. Is that for Nav systems only? |
