I think the recirute button overrides the ac switch, it was without adoubt running, no change switching ac button on or off, all highway so I couldn't feel it cycling but I know it was. I'll try with the 10 Impala I bet it works the same.
Yeah, that makes sense, otherwise you would end up with too much humidity in the car over time, which is definitely a bad thing.

Not very humid where you live? I think in some areas if you did this you'd get condensation on the outside of your windshield.
