Well, after a one day delay, I'll be headed to South Carolina in the S Thursday. It'll take 10-11 hours. What do you think, should I drive top up or top down the whole way?
Depends on whether you like being rain-soaked or not. Takes a lot of time to clean and dry all that wet leather.

You're running head on into Ernesto so we'll see how long it stays down, Mister. Be safe! Watch out for sun (maybe) and wind burn.

So far I'm the loan top up...I was figuring you'd be heading into that rain storm...However if it is sunny put the top down.

Top down of course, unless you meet Ernesto on the way.

My girl friend and I found ourselves standing in a Subway on our way home from Chattanooga to MI. A beautiful, hot summers day and we found ourselves in the middle of a wet T-shirt contest we didn't know we entered!

Always top down but watch out for the effects it can have.

Top down, baseball cap, sunscreen on the ears. When the rain comes, you are allowed to raise the top.

There's been a saying I've heard around here. "If that top is up, that storm better have a name." TOP DOWN!

Last I heard, it was still over Florida so you may beat it to your neck of the woods. We'll be expecting a full report when you get in, please. Happy driving.
