A/C problem

05 V10 crew cab. A/C wont blow cold unless I am on open road. Went by the dealer today and had to make an appt for next week. Has anyone had a similar A/C problem? I'm thinking it's just under or over charged. My '01 would freeze me out of the truck.

Does it perform the same on both AC and MAX AC? My 05 seems to really only cool down quickly and efficiently on MAX ac, while my older 99 will cool down quickly on just the AC setting.

Max is a little better, both settings are OK on the highway. In traffic regular AC doesn't do the job, max AC is tollerable at best. Takes 2 or 3 min to cool down after the truck is strated. I posted hoping that someone had this same problem and had it fixed. That way I could get an idea of what's involved. It'll be warranty work anyway.
