My solution was to insulate the garage attic and garage doors then add a mini split. On hot days the outside temp can be 90 degrees plus and my garage is 80 degrees inside with low humidity just running the mini split on dehumidify. You can always set it to A/C if you want it even cooler.
My setup works great, cost a bit over a $100. Different strokes, eh?
