Not on this one. The bay was great. It was an aircooled trip in the Gila national forest. Good driving. Check it out in the split forum

Isn't a highroof the splitty version of the hightop? Or if it's a bay and has the tall slider door is that also known as a highroof instead of hightop?
Or is that an orange split window that tricked me....?'
Actually, it doesn't matter

very nice older fella named John Moore. He drives that tan double cab,,minus the front bumper everywhere in Renton. We have crossed paths quite often. |

Last week, actually just 3 days ago, it was 70 degrees. Todays we woke up to 7" of fresh snow.
In Arizona, where it's cold and snowy. Big Bore, you are not alone!

Being a native Arizonan, I'm not sure I could handle that. But then, that's why it's so beautiful up there the rest of the year, right? Alaska's beauty is unsurpassed, from what I've seen. I have not actually been there yet.
Hope you can get lucky with an early spring.
BTW; if we don't get snow like this in winter, the state can burn down in the summer. We have to be happy for it.
