No A/C in your car? How do you cool down while driving?

Question

I have an older car and the A/C is broken with no extra $ to fix it. Any suggestions to cool off while driving beside driving fast with the window down? I already wrap a frozen blue ice up in a towel with a rubber band and set it in my lap. Any other ideas?

Answer 1

I live in Florida and haven't had AC in years. I even delivered pizza in the summertime without it. It gets brutal. I did buy a little fan that plugged into my cigarette lighter, and it did a lot to push the hot air around. The best way I found to stay cool is to park in the shade everywhere you go and keep trips less than fifteen minutes if you can. Short sleeves and arms out the window do provide for a nice cooling of the left armpit area. And, definitely, bring a towel to wipe the sweat off. I hope this helps, and I hope you manage to stay cool.

DO you've tinted glass? verify community rules, yet heavy tint on rear sideglass and reduce back window might want to be sensible.
