After roughly 3-5 minutes of driving the A/C goes warm. In the initial few minutes it's as cold as you set it. Any ideas or common items to look at?

Are there blend doors funtioning properly, turn the heat all the way hot and slowly turn it back does it slowly and steadily change the temp?

Yes, the blend doors work great.
I can go from full hot to cold or cold to hot and the temp changes as I turn the knob.
I was thinking maybe an evaporator temp sensor or low freon but I will evacuate and re-charge again just to make sure on the freon level.
Ohhhh, it's a 2001 not a 1998 as stated.

Ye I would check the level of the freeon, also I would check the compressor, maybe its getting old.
