People who talk shit about convertibles need to own one for a summer.

97talon · 10 Mar 2008, 10:06 pm

F that. What happens when winter comes? I have a sunroof, that's good enough.

BlkCamaroZ28 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:06 pm

Verts are nice until u have to put them up and when they leak. I prefer AC its called 290 2 windows down 90 mph

ford_racer · 10 Mar 2008, 10:08 pm

I daily drove my vert this winter. My heater is the best I've ever experienced in ANY vehicle, including a few Cadillacs.

As for 2 windows down at 90, how bout 110 top down. More fun. Did it twice today.

Oh yes, and AC kills mileage and power.

Ford88 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:09 pm

I've never used my AC in my car... ever. It's awesome. I use to be one of the "I'm never getting a vert they are for faggots" type of people till I test drove one. Damn they are awesome.

BlkCamaroZ28 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:10 pm

AC does kill power but it also helps to have it in the first place. It actually takes less gas then putting your windows down, which causes more drag

BlkCamaroZ28 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:12 pm

Well were i'm at i wouldn't be putting the top down unless u realy wanted to test that heater cuz its about 20 out.

I'm gonna go ahead and call bullshit.

Do a 1/4 mile run with your windows down, then do one with your AC on. AC is direct parasitic loss at all speeds. Your torque will be decreased, affecting your 60 foot time, and your top end power will be decreased, affecting your trap speed.

Your windows being down will only start to affect you at maybe 70 mph, and even then it won't be much. Windows being down is a ricer excuse.

I know what cold is. Montana holds the record for the coldest temp in the contiguous United States. -80 or so I believe.

BlkCamaroZ28 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:21 pm

I just noticed your from Montana. I wouldn't drive a vert during the winter anywhere but u guys actually get snow we just get a flock of birds that take a shit on the ground nothing more than to make the bad drivers cause a pill up on the freeway

LMAO!

Have you ever noticed that if there's even a slight amount of snow on the ground, people completely forget how to drive?

BlkCamaroZ28 · 10 Mar 2008, 10:27 pm

Yea every year and nobody ever learns until the first 5 big accidents, they slow down a bit then they forget and keep driving like idiots.
