Forgot to put the top up, damn

Advice: Get over it, you are a REAL Jeeper now. A real Jeeper drives with a wet butt and pulls over in the rain so the inside of the windsheild stays dry.

Advice: Keep a dry towel in the console.

Advice:

Pull the drain plugs.

Advice: I'm strange. :)

I carry a squeegee for the inside of the windshield in the rain....

the "california water blade" also works wonders

Works wonders to clean the shower door and windows around the house and on the Jeeps glass and hood.

Not too good on body bits where there are all sorts of bumps and such.

It's not intended to get _all_ the water off - just most of it so you can easily towel dry the rest. For that use I think it's fine.

Sorry Jeepers, but a Real Jeeper keeps driving in the rain, using his/her trusty squeegee to wipe the water off the inside of the windshield 8-)

I know something that works better. :)

My leaf blower.

Seriously.. it works.. skoots the water right off.

You are correct, I'm all wet. I always just pulled over and waited it out.

There is that extra Murphy's law. It will only rain when it is the most inconvenient to put the top up.

Like when you are in a suit on the way to an interview with your portfolio in the back seat on the freeway in gridlock with kids in the car next to you staring and pointing and the overpass is 50 feet in front of you.

Jeez, you youngsters got it easy...in my day we were LUCKY to have windshields or glasses to clean off...we had to drive our Jeeps every day, no top, through the rain on the way there and through a blizzard on the way back, wearing nothing but a T shirt and overalls, with one flat tire and no brakes, and by God we were THANKFUL to get all that!

You had a T shirt?

Dang city folk. ^_^

The hard part of course was that you had to *pedal* the Jeep...

And tires! I would have loved to have had the LUXURY of a flat tire. You were spoiled.

At least we had bark for shoes.

Here's the Better question, when I was test driving used Jeeps, you could tell who left the top off in the rain - even mine you can tell a little.

How do you get the smell of mouldy wet seats out ..... besides obviously steaming em.?!

Arizona.

real jeepers dont need squeegee's, they use the sleeve of their soaked shirt. lol.

wait for the sun to come out dude, and consider putting drain holes in the floor pans. same thing happened to me.
