Default well got my "caught in the rain with no doors" wings...

Had the top and front doors off all day, got an invite to have a few beers about an hour north of me and decided "well ill just put the roof on and leave the doors home". About 20 minutes into my drive the skies opened up with a huge boom and lightning and crazy rain. Interior is clean

Had it happen to me recently but roof was off. The carpet smelled like a fart for the next week till it finally dried.

same happened to me today. while I was pulling plugs and showing the wife where they were so she could do it herself if ever needed she says "we have floor mats, why do we need carpet?" I calmly looked at her, told her I loved her, and started pulling all the carpet.

Pull your carpet and you'll never worry about getting caught in the rain again. Just pull the drain plugs.
