Default So i dropped the top on my vert today..

This is the first time i have dropped my top in almost 1.5 yrs...the weather was great and wow..I had forgotten what it felt like to cruise drop top. It felt great...I remembered now why i fell in love with this vert the first time i test drove it.. ..

That is all.

Dude why would you not drop the top on a vert. Hell if I had a vert as long it was sunny out i'd wear a jacket if it was cold. Hope you enjoyed yourself.

Nice dude, I remember the days of dropping the top on the way home from work or even on the way to work during the summer. I also know what you mean about people staring at you when the top is down. Look at it this way.....they are just jealous they don't have a vert...plus the ladies love them. And nothing is better than driving at night with the top down with it's warm.

I could always tell when someone first got a vert cause they'd have the top down with a jacket and beanie on with the windows up....ha ha ha....I would just laugh.

One thing i hate is when people have the top down but the windows up...not only does it look dumb but why have the top down if you are going to have the windows up. or if they have only rear side windows up.

Hey man, you from Wheaton? I grew up there. I graduated from WCHS and lived over on the south side of town. What is your story?

BTW, when you see a vert with the windows up, look closely and there is always a women in the car. I get forced to do this by my daughters.

Ditto.
