I live in Texas. It's going up over 100 today, like it did yesterday. My windows are cracked an inch. My sunshade is up, car parked to face the afternoon sun.

When I approach the car, I walk around and open all the doors and the hatch. Get in, key on, roll down windows, key off. Get out again, walk around and close the doors. THEN I get back in and buckle up, take down the heat shield, put on glasses, etc.
