Default Foggy windows.

I tried to search for this so im assuming nobody else is having this problem but whenever it rains or if it rained recently, my windows get all steamed up. Tonight on my way home, it stopped raining probably a couple hours before, but my windows still started to steam up, checked to see if I had it on recirculate and it wasnt. When I hit defrost of course it cleared up but also notice when I have the window defrost on, im seeing some sort of wet/smear buildup on the outer part of the windshield, when I hit the wipers it disappears and then builds up again, when I shutoff defrost it stops doing it. I never had this problem when I first bought the truck, only after they fixed the leak in the windshield. I'm sure the dealership is just going to tell me its nothing and its normal, but my previous Jeep and my wife's car doesnt do this.

Mine will fog up as well, but our weather is changing, getting cooler. It also does not help if you are damp or have wet hair when you get into the truck.

I heard the anti-fog stuff from RainX doesnt work but will give it a try thanks. I was dry when I got in, just weird to see it fog up when it wasnt raining, now when I had a Honda Civic, anytime it was wet out the sucker would fog up really bad and that was with defrost on.

WASH YOUR TRUCK!!! No really.....

I am having the same problem. It has just started this 4 weeks ago after I owned the truck for 7 months already. One thing I haven't done in the past month would be not washing my truck because of the weather has been ****ty.

You need to clean your window. Better yet just wash your truck. I will be washing my truck thursday once the rain stops. I am also tired of this, but it's just because of the weather and dirty windshield.
