I can only dream of driving my Stook in that sort of heat.
Surely top down with a/c on would do the trick

That's part of the reason why I got rid of mine The stook deserves to have the top down, but the heat just kills me to do it during the 100+ degree days we have here. Now I have an excellent A/C (not to mention the 6 year warranty on it )

When parked in the sun at work and the top is down. I cover it with the easy to put on top cover to shade from the sun. It covers glass area too so the car is much cooler than without the cover. The shift knob is not hot to the touch and neither are the leather black seats to sit in.

Highly recommend to Socal owners and desert city dwellers.

In Salt Lake City it will get over 100 degrees a few time a year & I must say if it's not raining the top is down Because Once old man winter sets in she parked in the garage wishing I was driving with the top down

We don;t get that kind of heat out here where I live. It rarely breaks 90 here down by the beach. I think the bigger question is how bad is the humidity. In the desert, 100 degrees really doesn't feel that bad.

Top down, windows up, and crank the AC.

Ha humidity....... we got plenty of that here in Jersey Its awful you walk out of the house and immediately sweat profusely.
If my business was not here in NJ I would leave this high taxed, high insurance, toll grubbing roads, crooked politicians and head south.

Now I see why the media makes so many puns and jokes about Jersey.
Never been there.
