Originally posted in a Roadster thread following up Model S owners that also have this problem. Breaking this out into a Model S forum to see if there are others with the same issue:
So I thought I would search today and see if anyone else has this problem. Turns out I'm not alone.
I am comfortable in the car wearing a winter jacket and (before the car warms up) gloves if it is really cold. I set the heat to about 68 which is a comfortable temp (I keep my house at around 65 and that is comfortable for me) and I usually at least start the drive with the seat heater on. For some reason I can never get my feet warm in the car! On short trips it isn't a big deal, but on longer trips it gets to be pretty noticeable.
I keep the car in range mode so that may be a factor. I set the air to outside (recirculate causes fogging), I have the vents set to only the foot well, and I have the fan set to 8.
Does anybody else have this issue or is this just me and my poor extremity circulation?
