Yeah, we're nuts alright!:)) Actually, it was quite fun ... until the rain started coming around the windshield into our laps. Today was the FIRST time that the hardtop has come off the car since we bought this past November. I can now say that I've seen the soft top and the condition of it and the window look okay-if wrinkled. I expect the wrinkles will smooth out once the top has been up ... if we EVER get any warm weather. BTW, the car handles great in the snow, if you put (4) snow tires on it. Plus I have my work tools in the trunk too. Randy & Sue '99 M Rdstr
