Swamp cooler!?...maybe in Vegas, but not Savannah Ga!

I don't understand the two tube theory. Granted there needs to be an exhaust to get rid of the hot air, but wouldn't it be better to re-cool the room air rather then bringing in fresh (hot) air? Like using max vs regular A/C on our beloved Titans? There are some Midea units on Ebay and I want to avoid hacking a big hole in the wall. Am hoping to get away with just a dryer vent type exhaust. The garage is about 20X20. I just want to make it possible to work in there during the summer.

Thanks!
