Even in Florida it gets cold!

America was exceptional.
One time I was sitting in church and somebody that was a former fairly successful rock guitarist was about to play a song and they were warming up and they did the intro to that …
He was so good later when I talked to him about it he didn’t even know he did it .

I'm feeling the desert life. I'm tired of the cold and parking vehicles every winter.
Ohio is about to see a 26 degree low on Monday.
It feels like last week we were canceling work due to the heat index.

OP, is it worth trying to convince the Ladies to get topless and going for a topless Jeep ride?

You gotta remember that in the summer the overnight lows are in the 90s after the daytime highs are in the upper 110s. And this goes on for 5+ months.

Which is subjectively wonderful when compared to 5 months of nasty weather in northern Ohio. Depends which climate you are more ok with.
And 90* at night feels more like 80s where Cooper lives, but there can be nights when it stays closer to 100*, especially for folks in PHX.
IMO, daytime radiation is what makes things feel the most miserable in the southern AZ summer, but you get used to it if you stay covered (which is big reason why I run the soft top up even though I don't currently run windows). The airflow while driving helps a great deal.
Just like Ohio winters, AZ will have 1-3 week spans where the weather feels exceptionally brutal. There's a reason why snow birds are a thing for those lucky enough to experience the best of both locations.
For me, the best part of AZ (and out west in general) is the access to adventure.

Steelers chick in Florida, doesn’t get much easier than that.
The low humidity would probably make the 90's feel like 70's here at night.
I live on a mountain (not by western standard) and it will cool of nicely at night. Seems we always have a slight breeze to help out at night.
My one trip to Arizona, they had more rain in the 3 weeks before I was there than the 3 years before.
It was sweltering, the swamp coolers couldn't keep up.

Not just your opinion, it is a fact. I run the AC on Max and barely stay cool, but on the occasion when there’s a cloud blocking the direct sunshine, it starts to get chilly and I have to turn the fan down. Ambient air temperature is still the same, but the lack of direct sunshine makes a HUGE difference.
Just got back from a 3 week road trip Wed 4700 miles. 2 weeks in Wisconsin doing maintenance on my sister’s 130 yr old house. Fucking cold and windy. When I go back there I’m reminded why I left 46 yrs ago. Went down to Nashville for 5 days and it wasn’t much better. Luckily the Bars were nice and warm. Back in the 80s-90s here in SoCal. Our Winter starts next week highs in the 60s lows in the 40s with some rain.
My hardtop stays on all year. AC in the Summer heater in the Winter. Bikini top on my YJ because I’m too cheap to pay for a full canvas top after the original disintegrated.

Yea, it sure does. That damn sun just GLARES down - I try to stay out of it as much as possible.
Alright I'll keep parking cars in November, thanks.
