I just moved back to Vancouver BC from Calgary Alberta. It's a fantastic summer here. I've had a few drives through the valley on the main highways and into the city on warm summer nights with the top down. This car is so much fun to drive at night. awesome stereo, could interior lighting and that low grumble of the motor. LOVE IT!

I really feel for you guys who are having wet summers. I'm going to have to put my top UP long enough to treat it with some 303. We've had dinner on the patio almost every evening and the top on Maria has rarely been up.

I've been to Seattle, Spokane, Tulalip etc alot this summer too. Drove the stang to Seattle. Gorgeous weather. Only put the top up on I5 to block the bloody noise of the semis on that concrete roadway.

It's awesome to drive at night! Best part, especially when it's in mid 70s or more.
Put heated seats on, stereo on.
I have my interior lights matching my red paint. Awesome when driving.
I like to dim the dashboard lights

+1 on low grumble of motor!!!

I love it! I had it in my '05, '06 and now my '13. And it'll probably be in my next one! LOL! Assuming it's still an option whenever I get a new one...

^^ 100% agree!

One of my favorite things to do is cruise with the top down at night... I did this the other night and it was awesome. Started off in the low 60's, but by the time I got home, it was in the mid 70's. Perfect.

I had whole day of driving yesterday. Went to church, took a day trip to Chicago, then drove home in night. Enjoyed the liberating feeling of wind rushing in.

I will admit, driving hwy 55 north thru south side sucks. It has smells terrible!!
Feel bad for those folk up there

In Iowa, we haven't had rain since May. I vowed to drive my Daisy to work every day it didn't rain and am pushing 2500 miles already this summer.

Surprising, I'm just at about 6k

I've been driving my work truck more, I love driving my car, but the judgmental comments get old real fast.

OK all you drop top dudes. My left side rear quarter window raises to far forward causing the side window to stick when it indexes down. I talked to the service guy today, and he said he's never seen one like this. But, he will pull 'er apart, and get 'er done. He said he will need to remove the rear seat, and the rear panel to get in there.

Seems to be my luck with this car. It came from the factory that way. Anyone ever have this on their verts.

Sounds like it might not be seated in the window track correctly maybe? I have not had that problem before, but hopefully they'll get you fixed up quickly! Luckily, it's pretty easy to remove the seats and panels (I had to do that when I installed my light bar), so I'll keep my fingers crossed that it's an easy fix!

Thanks Ice, that does make me feel a bit better. I have confidence in the Tech (Mike). He has fixed several little things on this car for us already. I had to laugh, I pulled into the service bay, and Mike walked up with a "What's wrong with that thing now".

In the grand scheme of things, t'aint nothing.......

I had one rear quarter window that was not raising as far forward as the other, so my issue was the reverse of yours. The gap between the back edge of the door window and the front edge of the rear quarter window was considerably greater on one side than on the other. My service department took care of it.
