Houston guys,,take a read

I am moving to Houston in the next few weeks. I have a RT10, is it even possible to enjoy a ******* car out there. I spent this last week there and it just seems ungodly hot. I was thinking of picking up a hard top for it. Also, is there anywhere to enjoy it on the weekends. I spent most of the week in gridlock and was happy ot have the comfort of the Navigator.

Get the hard top. You won't be taking if off until October. Welcome to TEXAS!

I have been here for 18 years and there are not many days to really enjoy driving. It rains a lot, traffic, tons of construction with debris all over the roads. Join the houston club as they are somewhat active. Hard top is a must and find a good paint shop..............

Damn,,thanks for the encouraging words. I hope I didnt screw up with this move.

I don't know how you people live in the south, to damn hot for me.

You will definitely need a top if you plan on driving the car during the daytime. Hasn't been raining much here lately but you never know when one of those isolated thunderstorms will pop up. Our local VCA has recently shown signs of life.

Come to Austin. Just as Hot, but less Humidity.

You guys are wussies! There is a lot of traffic 6 am - 10 am & 3-6:30 pm M-F. Weekends you can get around. Top off AC full blast is OK. Some weekends you will want a top of some kind. How about Sept.-May, Nothing like the top off on Christmas Day. Summers are tough here, but Thanksgiving you will have the top off going to the store for your wife for the stuff she forgot for dinner.

Thanks guys, I am looking at downtown and south. Maybe Suger land or Stafford,,flooding problems there?

 

[got one]

I grew up in Sugar Land...ironically enough, I am allergic to cane sugar. Let me know if you ever need a tour
