Default My Vette is MAGIC!
It hasn't rained here (central Texas) in MONTHS...and none in the forecast for today...so last night I thought I'd leave my new (to me) car outside with the windows cracked to air it out a little...woke up this morning to RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)

It just started to rain so I had time to get the windows up, back in the garage, etc. I guess if it took leaving my Vette ouside with windows cracked it was worth it for some rain! Just glad I woke up early on my DAY OFF!!!!!! Plus, I was planning on a drive with the top off today Oh, the sacrificies we make...

Ahhh so it was you huh? When I woke to some sprinkles this morning I was wondering because my vette was snuggled in the garage and I hadn't washed my truck.

Don't you know that a clean vette with the windows down is a better rain dance than any indian can do?

I guess I'll have to try that, here in OKC. Hell, if leaving the windows cracked will make it sprinkle, I'll take my whole roof panel off!

Default You could rent it out
You could haul in some bucks just renting the car out to places that need rain.

Does it work in reverse? If I leave my car out with the windows shut tight the sun comes out?

Is anyone here familiar with Stubbmann's law (my last name hence Stubbs)
the law simply states...."Murphy was an Optimist."
