I once drove maybe two miles through a small central California town, Lemore, with my top up. Drove right past a local police car, I thought that he looked at me kinda funny but he didn't stop me or anything. I realized the top was up when I attempted to enter a fast food eatery that I won't mention. It had one of the bars hanging down and let me tell you those things work. What happened was I put the top down and latched it. Got in the drivers seat and realized that I had left my wallet in the upper bunk bed and popped the top up and got the wallet and just drove away. Since I was only going like 25 mph I didn't realize that it was still up. I was on my way to get a wake up cup of coffee. A little late I guess. Did the same thing leaving a campground once too, hit a low tree branch but I was going really really slow. No damages thankfully. Have a nice Father's Day too.

If I knew the answer to that I wouldn't have had the opportunity to send that email. Just one of those things.
