drive all the faster you want. Down here you get downpours of biblical purportions and all the speed in the world won't keep you dry. However, your average spring/summer shower is no big deal and even I don't close the sunroof for those. Then again, in a biblical downpour, I don't have to close the sunroof either unless I stop. :P

I love driving in the rain (beats snow anyday), besides a good downpour is an excuse to give the underside of the car a wash. :)

Driving in the rain isn't bad- unless it's raining reeeeeally hard because as we all know, our wipers aren't the quickest things :lol:

The thing I hate most about the rain is- it reminds me all day that I wasted my time washing and waxing the Cabby the day before :evil: Oh, and I get worm guts and flower pedals from trees ALL over it :x

Me too.... Never used RainX, but I have put a slight coating of wax on the windshield which works great but eats the wipers over time.
