I find it's a more enjoyable ride over 55 if the windows are up about 2-3 inches at the highest point. Anyone have those little clips that hold the back hatch open? I want to try those!!!

My usual is top off, windows down.

When it's 115 or more - it's top up, windows up and A/C set on 67!

With a convertible, if its nice enough to drive around with the windows down, then it's nice enough to drop the top too.

I like the windows down but with temps around 100 and humidity very high, the windows go up and the a/c goes on!

I run with the windows down in all but the hottest or coldest months of the year.

It sure gets your interior dirty.

If you are talking about Verts with the top DOWN and the windows UP? NO!

That's just not cool.

I enjoy driving the vette with the windows down. Air in your face...A better sense of what is going on.

I very rarely drive with the windows up and AC on. The only times I do is when it's very hot and raining or cold.

I usually drive around with the windows down, but with the temps hovering around 100 or more, I enjoy the A/C too much to suffer in the heat. Windows are up until this stuff breaks.
