Default Topless again!

Bright sunny day with a high of 45F and having not been topless since early November... I was just itching for it... I decided to drive home from work topless. After putting the top down (boy that was a crappy fold job, I'm out of practice) I jumped in the Jeep and drove off, grinning from ear to ear I worked my way to the freeway on ramp enjoying every minute of it. After reaching my cruising speed I realized just how many receipts and other misc papers I collected during the winter because they all started to become airborne. Now I need to go empty my pockets and thaw out my fingers.

Good to be topless again!

I have been running with the top in safari mode, drops in the 30's in the morning, a little nippy, but the heater is awesome

Since November....??? Heck, consider yourself lucky!!! We didn't even HAVE a summer last year. It seemed like everyday I was wanting to drive to work with the top down. But it was either raining or it was clear and right at the freezing mark. What a pain. Hopefully this spring/summer will be different. So when you find yourself complaining, remember......you COULD live in Alaska

It was awesome driving to Daytona last week from VT. We had the front panels out a few times and loved it. Now, we are back home it's in the twenties and a snowstorm is scheduled for today. Man it was a very long ride home on Friday.

I'm a few miles south of you, down in Happy Valley. Pulled my top and doors yesterday. Hope it stays warm like this for a few more days.
