Applies to all convertibles

Do not eat doughnuts covered in powdered sugar when driving with the top down. A speckled grey interior will result.

However, doughnut holes that can be eaten in one bite (such as Timbits for those who live in civilized countries) are a good solution, as the sugar will not explode.

I always wondered why I never saw convertible cop cars.

I can't even eat a bag of chips in the Lethal Locost - the insane buffeting wind wants to rip the bag from my hands. The lighter the bag gets, the worse the effect.

Do you still get a speckled grey interior if the car has a brown interior? Weird.

Topless cop cars—how can you not recall Sheriff Buford T. Justice? Ok, so it didn't have a ragtop, but it was topless.

Also, a tasty flaky croissant is a bad idear. I discovered that this morning. And if you will excuse me, I must now go and vaccum my miata.

Just drive fast. Doesn't the interior become a negative pressure zone when traveling at high speed? Could suck all that powedered sugar right out of your interior! I know it lifts the dirt off the floor of my wifes car (usually into my eyes)!
