I've had the top off my old Wrangler for 4 weeks at a time. Rain or shine. Grab a towel to sit on and pull the drain plugs. Boxster- 9 hours one day road tripping last fall, but this will be my first full summer with her...
My top goes down when the low temp gets to around 50 F and the top goes back up when the high temp is around 40 F. So in Illinois, I have the top down for about 6-8 months straight.
Well longest single trip 4 hours. When weather is nice 18 degrees c to 30top down unless parked. Jul to Aug top down mornings top up afternoon cause its 115 f
I owned a cj5 once no top almost a year, finally cold air broke me. Was living in Fl panhandle then. Rain or shine paying the price now on my 5th bayzel cell being cut out.
