I like to go topless and all but I'm not risking my health over it. A couple bags of fluids and he was good to go again.

This has nothing to do with Jeeps, this has to do with my ass sweating in my AC right now. I think this is the limit for me, 107 on the thermometer = large man avoids the outside!
God Bless our Soldiers dealing with much worse...I retract all complaints!!!!!

Holy crap lol ... Yeah thank god I work nights! My jeep hasn't even moved in daylight for the past week. I wanted to wash it but even that can wait. I'm staying inside worshipping the AC and eating a popsicle. Doesn't feel like Ohio more like death valley with 100% humidity!!! :/

Yesterday it was 101 with 80% humidity. I seriously thought. About putting the hard top back on. I have been riding with the freedom panels on and intermittent doors for about 2 and a half months now. Yesterday I had to turn on the air to get some cool air tough.

Sucks here in Michigan too. 100 degrees today 
I have a SpiderWeb Shade and it makes a WORLD of difference. Never feels warmer than 85 degrees under that thing. I tried running without it one day and almost died!
But yes, SpiderWeb Shade, no doors, no top. Most excellent

I have no AC, so it's been doors off and top off for a long time. I only have a 30 minute drive each way so even in 100 F and very high humidity I can make it home in that. I do get a little damp, but that's about it. Not completely soaked with sweat. I don't mind the sun for that amount of time. If I had a longer trip I'd put the freedom tops on to stay out of the sun.
Definitely agree with a previous person about the vents and the fan. Turn it off and close all the vents. It just blows hot air at you. And make sure all of the drain plugs are closed. They just blow hot engine air up at you if they are open.
