Agreed, I hate sunroofs/moonroofs & T-tops (and anything not solid over my head), I like keeping the sun off my Irish like Skin tone… ---

I guess that I could live without a sunroof, but using it in “tilt mode” when I am parking the car on very hot days makes it much cooler when I get into the car. Also, on days that are mild, and not hot enough for A/C, using tilt mode while I’m driving creates a nice updraft that pulls air through the dashboard vents w/o having to use the fan. ---

> [@TheWonderful90s](#): > > A regular car buyer thinks of a sunroof as an exciting feature. The only time I like a sunroof is when the car is unbearably hot. When I had my Accords I would open all the windows and sunroof remotely while walking to the car. When I got to the car the inside temperature was bearable. ---

It’s falls season now and the temperature is really nice. I no longer need to use the AC, and what I love about the sun/moonroof is that when I lilt it, the air from outside keeps my head cool and breathing feels refreshing. And yes, in the summer time I leave the sunroof lilted when parked so the car doesn’t get super hot. I’m a huge, huge fan of the moon, and I’m Not talking about the moonroof but rather the moon outer space, and at nights I would find a cozy spot to relax and look out through the sunroof to look at the beautiful moon and stars. ---
