Yeah the worst part about that fog is you have to turn the hot air on to get rid of it... =(

i roll with all windows down(i dont have a/c) and then when im REALLY getting hot, i drive a bit, turn on the heater on defrost so it hits my face, then turn it back off. by the time i do that im already at a good enough speed and the air that was thought to be hot outside, is actually tollerable again lol

The classic car crowd has used evaporative coolers, often called swamp coolers, for decades. Here is an example:
