congrats on the car...top up. side curtains in place and you will be toasty roasty if you find the tonneau cover or topless to be not enough protection if you get too cold. make sure they show you the proper top installation procedure, and best to do it when it is warm as vinyl shrinks in the cold and can be at times contakerous to stretch in place.

if the tonneau is in place then remember the side over the door will flop in the breeze so put some masking tape on top of hte door area directly under the tonneau. easy to remove and no marring from whipping tonneau as it flaps in the breeze at speed.

if it snows , park it, as those wide tires will be oily skidaroo...careful in the rain/ wet til you get used to the car and be cautious of signs of hydroplaning, which can happen depending on speed, water on road and road surfaces. you always like the front end to arrive pointed in the right direction.

one of those 'anti fog' sprays or 'mitts' is helpful too in certain conditions to keep the moisture/fog off the inside of the window. also, put a good layer of Rain-X on the outside of the windshield, then over 35 mph you wont need those dinky wipers.

take some towels with you should it rain, water seems to find its way in...just smile at those smiling at you as they would rather be in your car than their dry warm family vehicle, right ?

enjoy the shakedown cruise ...be safe, have fun ! bill.
