I had the car in Tucson, Arizona, where summer high temperatures routinely reach over 100 degrees. I was afraid the car would not hold up to the heat, as I drove it some distance to work every day, but it performed quite well. I was especially afraid the air conditioner may have been made for a more temperate climate. As I drove home from work, I was always headed into the sun. So the afternoon sun shone directly through the windshield onto me in the afternoon, which of course, was the hottest part of the day. My wife and I were going on a short day trip in southern Arizona, and I was afraid the A/C wouldn't hold up as I was used to being just a little warm in the afternoon. I was surprised, however, when my wife asked me to turn down the A/c not once, but three time during the course of the trip! And, on the way home, she had me turn it off completely. So after that, I realized that it was just the route home that was perhaps causing me to be a little warm in the afternoon, and not any inherent fault with the car's air conditioner.

I enjoyed being in this vehicle and puling up to my favorite spot Sonics drive-in. My family and I will sit and enjoy corn dogs and ice cream there.

A friend and I just took it out for a drive around the Puget sound, laughing enjoying the summer sun and wind. It was just a fun afternoon taking turns driving and talking.
