Give This A Try

I found something new today. While driving down the road (50-60mph) with all windows up and sunroof closed, lower one or both of the rear windows. WARNING: Have ear plugs in.

I frequently drive with A/C off, sunroof tilted open and both rear windows lowered about 2 inches. A little more noise, but not that bad really.

Has nothing to do with the sunroof... try it with any car. If you want to go deaf then try it with an SUV.
