I've been a convertible fan/driver for most of my 33 driving years. I have personally owned 7 in past and my workstation computer name was "Ragtop" on the network.

In fact I now have some ( I forgot the term) callous on my eyes attributed to years of wind. I would often drive from NC to Atlanta and back in a day with the top down ( 600 miles). I now wear wrap around style sunglasses to prevent more callous forming, so be careful out there.

Since I got my '92 Mustang I have started wimping out on the 90*+ days in blazing sun and putting the top and using A/C. On every convertible I have had I always kept an old winter coat in the trunk for the below 50* nights. Turn up the heat and maybe roll up the windows and life is great! In most convertibles if you are going over 50mph you can go through mild rain and not get wet.

Nothing better than a 75* summer night with a good road, tunes going with the top down, a V8 rumble and my sweetie.... ahhh... I'll be back later, I think I feel a drive coming on 8).
