Default Sunroofs

I've never been a huge fan of sunroofs. With time, they can leak, cause rusting around the edge of the sunroof and they heat up the car like an oven. The only kind of sunroof I've ever had is the kind where you can slide a panel under the sunroof and block out the light. Now those I don't mind.

I see your point. It's a concern indeed, but one which can be addressed by appropriate maintenance measures. I still like sunroof for many reasons. Many times I really just love to let the sun and wind to literally enter the car as I cruise.

My sister loves sunroofs and has had them in every car she's owned, but I never had. Like you, I'm cautious where they are concerned. That said, in decades, she's never had a single problem with hers.

Even if I never opened it, I'd still like to have a sunroof! I like the open feeling they provide at night as well as during the day. I'd just be sure to keep it well maintained. Driving with rain leaking down on you it isn't something anyone would enjoy.

Sunroofs are awesome, especially if you like to go for drives or frequent the beaches. I don't have one right now but it's definitely on the next vehicle, that's for sure.
