Yes it gets hot, but really only couple months out of a year. The rest of the year is awesome. There’s plenty of places to go off roading within a hours drive. I’ve been here all my life and can’t image dealing w heavy snow and rust! To each is own!
Tint the windows dark as legally possible. Make sure to use quality tint. A good windshield sunvisor is a must. I will also crack my windows. A remote start w the A/C on will help a lot of you can!
