I've used my a/c 3 times so far this year and that was for about 1 min. I wish I had a sunroof even though I voted yes. I always drive with the windows down.

AC is a requirement for me, but a sunroof is more of a luxury option. My first tib had one, but my new tib doesn't..I really miss it now that its summertime.

never had either in a car, should have added cruise control to the list of questions.

a sunroof would be nice, but i regard it as one of those "if it has one cool, if it doesn't so what." not like i'm going to refuse a car because of a lack of sunroof.


with my 2002 (bmw), i don't even have EFI! bigeyes.gif carb anyone? owned.gif

It's like hot as hell outside right now and I was sweating my ass off, so I kinda wish there was a "OMG, hell yea! I can't live without it" option on there for a/c.

As for the sunroof, I wanted one but they didn't have any manual Tibs left with one. 02.gif

It's about 95 degrees out right now and it's not even summer. cool.gif

I use my A/C just to cool down my vehical all year long. it's hot as heck in there when you first get in. Then i have it running all day durring the summer. So i'd say yes, need A/C

Sunroof is awesome for ventilation. MUST.

I need cruise control for long drives. I take alot of them. Can't do without cruise control.

I voted no on all. I only used ac if its very hot and theres a passenger. Sunroof thats alot of drag so I used it only going trough a neighbor hood but I dont really need it. Cruise I use only when they are cops around just to make sure i dont go over or hit the gas a lil (exhaust and intake are louder than most ppls).
