You know you're a convertible owner when...

If you can't drop the top due to cold weather or rain, then you would rather not drive the car at all...

Here's another:
When you're going somewhere with your wife and she says that she doesn't want to go in the vert because her hair gets messed up from the wind. You say, "let's take separate cars"

Your posts to new members who just bought a convertible go something like this:

"Congrats on your vert!

Now go check the convertible section of this forum to see how many issues you could potentially have.

Also, please join the Facebook page for the above said issues.

Enjoy your vert "

...you're obsessed with making sure you have plenty of hats in the car so your (balding) head doesn't get burned.

...you're checking every nook and cranny of the interior to make sure nothing is wet after you've handwashed your car.

When it's 40 degrees outside but you still drive with the top down, the heated seats on and the heater turned up full blast.

You know you are a convertible owner when:

Although you live in Northern Ontario, there is snow and ice, it is COLD and yet you kind of want to get the right tires, drop the top, turn the heat way up and the bun warmers on just to go for a ride... LOL

When you smile to yourself thinking about driving your car even though it is at the dealership to get the 5th bow fixed again!!
