Tell me about it. It was 107 in Topock today.

That's Mohave Cty, for you.

But then my snow tires will get cold.

So, I've had my Silverado for over 4.5 years and bitched many times about how the sunvisors didn't cover areas where the sun could burn right into my eyeballs. HATED that!

Well, I was yesterday years old when I discovered - the fuckin' visors will SLIDE on their rods, and cover the areas they otherwise can't reach! Checked my wife's 2007 Kia Sorento, those fuckers slide too!

WTF, nobody ever told me this......

Aka, RTFM.

What's the ballpark price for that, if you don't mind my asking?

Ended up being just under $700.

They charged more for the compressor than I could buy it for, and having them evacuate and recharge only would have been $170. I just don't have the time, and not that I am a greenie/hippy, but I don't have the appropriate equipment for evacuate/recovery.

Yeah I'm currently driving around the desert recharging my A/C every 30 hours or so at the moment.

Sounds like you have a refrigerant leak.

Always fun finding little "easter eggs" like that...

ROFL.

Pretty much any vehicle I've ever owned had visors that slide.

Legit question. How old was the oldest vehicle?

I know most vehicles in the last twenty years or so have had those sliding visors but the first four vehicles I owned were all pre-1975 and I don?t recall them doing much beyond flipping up and down. I?m not even sure they swung to the side.

Hard think but probably going back to my 1984 Saab.

OK, maybe the older pre-80's cars before that didn't have them.

Naw, who does that?
