I've noticed on my Echo that selecting the foot or lower vents only still sends air up to the windshield, so I never turn it to full defrost unless it's really humid out and the windows won't dry up.

Anyone notice this on the Yaris? I know this little cheat doesn't work on my parent's Matrix.

Yep, this works. I run the "foot" mode all of the time to defrost the windshield.
