1.  I have a 20-inch box fan that (when I am camped with AC power) sits
against the (front) screen of the canvas top.  No help when driving but
when the desert cools down at night really moves the air thru if the
back is open or at least propped open a bit.


2.  If you're stuck with 270 air conditioning (2 windows down and 70
mph) you might take along a couple of spray bottles filled with water.
They make mister bottles but almost any spray bottle will do.  Spray the
air in front of your face for some primitive swamp cooling.


3.  Drive naked whenever practical.
