We've got a drive-in in N Houston (Tomball).
Haven't been, but have heard it's not bad. Double features for a decent price.

I agree 65 isn’t cold. It’s when it’s under 50 it’s cold.

Don't think I claimed otherwise? You are absolutely right though.

If I'm reading that right, I'm sorry for assuming your preference!
But yes, women do get cold and hot for no fucking reason.
Only pattern I can pick up is that it's ALWAYS inversely related to how I'm
feeling at the time.
I feel like a dog putting my face up to a crack in the window to breath when she
needs the heater on!

Still fucking this thing...
I dig it...
currently massively annoyed that the Robbins Top permalok has come undone.
I need a new one but I need it warrantied and installer hasn't been super
responsive during the pandemic (understandably). I got off the phone with
Doug Robbins...super nice man...family owned operation for like 50 years
but they sold a few years back and he stayed on.

Either way, I'll try and get the new top sent directly to me...I'd be out the install
cost anyway so I might try and do it myself or find another place to help out. If
I had known the window could drop out like that I would have probably gone OEM
again...what's the point of a material that'll last 20 years if the window falls out in 3?!?!


for the locals like @zeta this was where the toll booth office was on Pat Salerno
next to the National Car Rental Center

Top? You don't need no steenkin top.
Time to go the Speedeter route & just ditch the top completely. Top down = always


Sucks to hear it's giving you trouble. Never heard of Robbins tops being problematic on the Miata side of the world.

@00TL-P3.2 I know, man...I did my research and I recall my installer called in a favor to have them price match the Robbins cloth top...
supposed to last FOREVER. They have that permalok window seal but I guess it doesn't like the Florida sun...I don't know...
He's a super cool guy and I'll get it resolved but it's annoying to have to deal with this again. In the meantime, trashbag and
car cover is on it when not in use.

Agreed with 00TL-P3.2, you don't need no top! Just like you don't need no pants.

Agree. But after I gaslight you to sell it to me (bro price, friends for life, put money into if first), then I start gaslighting Jawknee into buying it from me at a remarkable premium (corner lot deal, relationship with bubba, buy now pay now and later).

Easy money. Then I spend it on hoodrat shit.
