Do you ever feel vulnerable with the top down?

Clearly one of the best things about the box is the top down experience but it sometimes makes me a little nervous when drivng around. I definitely feel this more in the city (Pittsburgh) as opposed to the burbs. There are bums, drug dealers, crazy drunk people at night, general shady characters, etc. It can be a little unnerving sometimes. Even on a regular suburbian street when a few teenagers pull up in a thugged out POS it makes me think a little. The good thing about a top is that it protects you a little more and isolates you from these elements.

Anyway, my solution was to purchase a nice big bottle of pepper foam spray to help diffuse any possible threats that jeapordize my security. I keep it in the drivers door compartment although it is not quite as accessible as I want it to be. Do any of you guys carry a defense device for the same reason? Have any of you had any scary experiences?
