Default Solution for Dust with Doors Off

I have a new '09 X that I am using as a ranch jeep. It spends nearly all of it's time on very dusty roads. Works great with the top off, inside got dusty (which I don't care about). However when I took the doors off it seemed like it pulled all the dust off the road into the cab. I couldn't breath after about a mile. I'd like to have the doors off since we are using this for hunting and are in and out of it 100 tiems a day. Any ideas. I'm going to try and take the windshield off as well and see if that helps.

put a full-width rubber mat on the bottom of your rear bumper. It will stop the dust from coming up from the road.

Having the windshield down should help alot.

It does kinda sum it up though. This could become another epic "mud off my jeep" thread.

adjust your A/C vents slightly to the left and right. FULL BLAST!! (careful not to hit the recirculating button)

I'm thinking dual leaf blowers mounted on the floor pointed outwards should work.
