    Black top in hot climate?

    I'm definitely tinting my windows, that should make a huge difference in greenhouse effect...plus it'll obscure the perfect extortion candidate gringo behind the wheel🤣

    Black top in hot climate?

    That's cool, I've never noticed one of those (and sshhhh, I like Rovers too😉). I'm planning on having a roof rack similar to the one below made, was thinking it may make a little shade and offset the absorption of the black.

    Black top in hot climate?

    Yep, San Juan del Sur on the southern pacific coast. We have pretty consistent temps year round, low of 75, high of 85 most days, very little variation from the mean. We have a wet season and dry season, about 60" of rain/year coming almost exclusively during the rainy season. It's hot here, but...

    I'm a scientist by trade...how am I going to look cool with you guys forcing me to consider empirical evidence😉🤣

    Black top in hot climate?

    I do have AC...that's the only reason I'm still considering it.

    Black top in hot climate?

    Something like dynamat under the headliner? I do need a new headliner, but was planning on removing the old one and using white bed liner to replace it.

    Black top in hot climate?

    I know I pretty much only wear white quick dry shirts or none at all down here...maybe I should just go topless😉

    I'm not sure who's rig this is, but I love the dark green with black accents.

    Black top in hot climate?

    Aloha, Does anyone have a black top on their 40 in a hot climate? Did it turn it into an oven? I like the look and have been considering doing it on my '72 down here in Nica, but I'm wondering if I'll regret it. Thanks for the input!

    Dobinsons vs Ironman 4x4 2" springs

    Hey Mark, thanks for the insight, nice setup! I found that pic on a thread talking about Ironman springs and I guess I misinterpreted that's what you were running on that rig. Thanks again for clearing that up!

    Dobinsons vs Ironman 4x4 2" springs

    Thanks for chiming in here Georg, I hope you see my intent was never to disparage you, or even TT with this post, like you said it went sideways fast. As you alluded to, nothing I said was untrue, and I was just conveying my experience and looking for advice on alternatives. I didn't reach out...

    Dobinsons vs Ironman 4x4 2" springs

    I'm not trying to get into a pissing match here, and again, I didn't start this thread to disparage anyone. My heading wasn't "Georg is an #$%+×," "Don Kyatt are scammers," or "OMG, Cruiser Brothers sold out." In fact, I've said nothing but good things about Georg, and I think it's reasonable to...

    Dobinsons vs Ironman 4x4 2" springs

    I'm just trying to read the tea leaves like you and go off what I have been told and found online to support it. Phone isn't the best option for me down here in Nica (poor wifi connection), but I did confront Rourk via email after he left the message about the shipping being $175 higher than...
