In the capital of Arizona – with extreme temperatures that can reach 122°F during the day and don’t drop below 90°F at night – life is almost impossible. If blackouts were to knock out the air-conditioning, nearly half the population could end up hospitalized
Phoenician pro-tip: if you use a letter for each individual sound instead of one for every word, it makes for a more efficient writing system. Also DO NOT fuck with the Romans or random weirdo desert tribes they will murder you without mercy.
What winters? It barely gets below 32F/0C in Detroit anymore. This is actually quite problematic bc we need at least two solid weeks straight of below freezing temperatures to kill invasive bugs and we are no longer getting that.
If someone wants to break into your car, they’ll see something inside and then attempt to break in. That, or if they know anything, theyll just smash your window, check your trunk through the seat, and leave.
Leaving your window cracked probably doesnt increase your likelihood of getting your car broken into, especially if you dont leave anything valuable in the car.
Either way, leaving things like backpacks, large cases, really anything at all valuable looking anywhere in your car is the greatest way to get your car broken into.
I went and bought one of those for my dark colored vehicle, today is the first day I’m using it. I remember it helping on another vehicle I used to have, but that one also had tinted windows.
I used to have these little visor things that covered the top few inches of the side windows, that helped a lot because I live somewhere where it can suddenly rain.
You know, I’ve seen those on cars occasionally but it never actually twigged until now what they were for. I’m one of today’s lucky ten thousand. I’m going to see if I can find a set of those.

Also leave a tray of baked goods on the dash so when you return you can enjoy a nice freshly baked muffin.
The real pro tip is to leave the state. Cracking a window lol
The real solution to climate change is to crack a window
Still better than Michigan winters

Great way to get your car broken into, just sayin.

Also, front window reflector shields that you put up when your car is parked make a massize difference

I’ve found that leaving a few windows cracked is more effective than the shades, but doing both certainly can’t hurt.
Except that I get rain where I live, so leaving windows cracked can be a bit of a gamble sometimes and I have to stay alert.

It’s easier to find them the more common the vehicle is.
