Default 04 Dakota ac question

Only 65 degrees out, 75% humidity, cloudy.

Just making sure the a/c is working properly. To me it doesn't seem to get quite as cold but maybe it's just me.

Truck is at 1800 rpm in video. Temps out of drivers center vent with settings at full fan speed and max a/c upper vents only got down to 43 degrees.

Short video shows what the Gage's were doing. Shouldn't the pressures be stable rather than fluctuate up and down?

I'm not the HVAC maven, but IIRC the temperature DROP at the vents needs to only be 20 degrees to be considered acceptable. You seem to have that covered. In a normal situation the interior temps would drop resulting in the discharge air always being 20 below the ambient, hence the cooling.

As for the pressures, I have no idea.
