It was 109 F today in Phoenix (that's about 43 C). And you want me to tell you the hottest INSIDE temperature? I can't even TOUCH the darn thing to get in it!

It will get hotter before it gets cooler. Running with the top down now in the desert isn't a whole lot of fun. However, the mountains are nearby and the weather is GREAT up there!

PS - I guess I don't really know what you mean by "Hottest Inside Temperature" since the temp sensor is located outside. Just behind the grill on the driver's side.

Mine was reading 108 today on the drive home from work. Makes driving without a top and doors a little uncomfortable. I can feel the heat from the pavement more with the doors off.

Seeing the 120 in the post above makes me think of the time I went to Big Bend NP in June. Not a good idea. My gauge was reading 137 - 142 most of the time during the day. I was in a Ford F150 at the time. I kept wondering how high do the numbers go?

On a hot sunny day, the inside of my vehicles can hit 140F easily.

Pretty damn toasty in Michigan as well, brings out that New Jeep plastic smell . Heads up, don't leave your I pod's inside to cook.
