Cowboy hat in C5...
Ok now, this is Dallas... 
Earlier this week saw a red C5 headed east on hwy 114, driver was wearing a big cowboy hat. Never saw that before! I got onet but no way can I wear it and drive.
Anybody else wear a cowboy hat when they drive the C5?
How do you do it without the crown hitting the roof and brim hitting the drivers side window?

The vehicle has nothing to do with it.

No way I could wear a cowboy hat and drive the car. Hat would be crushed up against the roof panel. Don't know how the driver did it unless he was pretty short.

Probably for the same reason the British love the floppy little
hats they wear in MG's and Triumphs?
