Currently in the mid 90s here in northern Idaho… I just completed a drive at highway speeds and averaged 400 wh/mile with AC blasting. Mine is wrapped high gloss black so I imagine it’s a heat magnet.

I got the bird ??, a thumbs down ?? and a few happy waves. The first two responses were probably induced by people driving beaters without proper air conditioning.

Just great in SoFL.

I have cabin overheat set to 100 and it fires off a few times a day (even in shade).

All good.

I did just get windshield fully tinted, so waiting to see if it has any positive affect.

I was traveling and had my CT out for 4 days in 105F+ temp, with window covers and roof covers... It was a record in SF Bay Area. Now the baby is back in the garage.

Wife arranged a mini-vacation at an Airbnb in the mountains north of LA. Of course, it's super-hot today - mid 90's - but the CT kept us (me, wife, my mom, her mom, and four dogs!) cool in the cabin the whole way!! CT temperature control is great, better than in my old Model Y! CT is definitely more conspicuous in Big Bear, CA than in SoCal, but these are mountain people and they take their 4 wheeling very seriously!

Well, the Stainless Steel gets hot, I mean HOT!
But when I'm inside, no big deal.
That’s why I wrapped it. 65 degrees in the sun for 30 minutes was uncomfortably warm.

No problems here either, since they introduced overheat protection ??

118 in the Phoenix AZ area today. I was only there a few hours, but the truck blew cold air and performed just fine. I forgot my upper back window screen too. I do have windows tinted with UV protection, and still stainless.

115+ here in Arizona and doing great. Just gotta be careful opening the door with the hot steel haha. Tinted windows/windshield help a ton too along with the roof sunshade. Air conditioned seats are also a lifesaver!

65 degrees? You aren't even in our ballpark. I haven't seen temps that low in months.

And later this afternoon, if your truck was here, it would be over 90 degrees, that's just the outside temps.
