do you guys ride with your windows up then?
I do (top down & AC on) - It seems to help contain the cold air better.

here in dfw we have consistant 100+ days... i havnt put my top down during the day in about a month.. its just too hot.
It's consistently 102+ here in Vegas. It's way too hot to run with the top down. Sometimes it's so hot I feel cold. I think that means I'm dying

Drove when it was 95 with the top down and ac on once, now I got a mean shirt tan so until it averages below 85 again, top doesnt go down until 6 ot 7. Btw, night time driving with the top down on hot days (because then it's nice and cool) is great.

103 today for the last two hours of our drive from Seatte to Boise. Top down, AC on full blast, and set for recycle. Not too bad.

Sometimes putting the windows up will help, sometimes not because you lose the breeze. Depends on how hot the breeze is.

when its 96* with 90% humidity making it feel like 110+ I definitely go top up. Dry heat isn't a big deal but when youre sweating just from the walk to the car you're gonna be in for a sticky ride
