    Sounds like you already solved the problem, and begs the question: Why ask a question you know the answer to? we are on the HAMB so a vehicular related answer obviously would be the only correct answer.

    Since I got it right do I get a prize?

    Hang a tarp or some visquene over your shop door, and trim it around the truck so it hangs to the ground. Won't stop everything, but it'll allow you to cool the shop if you want to.
    We use a big honking fan, place it to blow through where we're working and it helps a lot on the 100+ days, especially when it's humid.

    My fix for the heat is I'm leaving friday for a job in North Dakota. Someone'll probably have to remind me what a good idea that was come december when I'm freezing though.

    Y'all have a good day, Keith

    There is a reason why residential AC was invented in charleston, at least thats what i am told. Its 10:40 right now and its 89 degrees out, gonna be a warm one today. In my chevy I just deal with it, or I go to the beach and look at all the pretty things in bikinis while I pop a few cold ones

    I love the warm weather. The locals around here start whining like little girls as soon as it goes above 80.

    They keep the A/C in the office where I work set at "frigid" and I have to go outside every so often to thaw out! :D

    I've had the top down on my O/T daily driver every day and loving it.

    I used to work in El Centro, CA and saw upwards of 114 some days, so 80s and 90s don't bother me one bit.

    I like it more than the rain.

    No, no AC.

    Me too, and I had to tow a bunch of cars around in a field so I could mow their spots, and then I had to move them back. Some cars are easy to tow. The cars without steering wheels are a little harder to tow. The cars with no wheels are a lot harder to tow.

    103 yesterday here in MN. 20 degrees cooler today and dropping another 10 tomorrow. At that rate we'll be shoveling out at Back to the 50's

    I'll take 100 over -30 any day and we see them both here.

    Had my T-bucket out today, middle 90's. Came back sweaty and cranky. Drove it in February when it was 25. Came back happy and smiling. Go figure. I like my music and temps in the 50s and 60s.
