    No, I'm not trolling at all. If the key to a clear windshield in snowing conditions is don't use the windshield heat/defroster then my question is about other areas on the truck that also, without question, are not being heated but have snow/ice build up.

    Any heat leaking to windshield can cause snow to stick.
    ‘72 Louisville I drove eons ago the owner had cut pads to block defrost vents as required since they would leak heat.
