Question for all you Vert owners.

How long do you leave the top stowed?

I typically don't leave it down for more than a day. I'd have to go through the manual to see if there was a recommendation about leaving it down. Just curious. Thanks.

Why would you leave the top down over night anyway?

I never ever leave it down except while driving or stoping in a place where I can see my vehicle. The owners manual states not to leave it down overnight if I recall correctly.

I'm usually a few hours Ric. Don't think it has been down longer than 5-6 hours.......

Ive left it down for weeks. It stays in my garage and I only drive it when its nice outside. Love looking at it with the top down when I leave for work in the morning.

Now I need to drag out the manual and see what it says about leaving it down.....

Just checked the manual - it says:

"Only store the vehicle with the top fully closed"

shortly after:

"Do not leave the vehicle with the convertible top open"

Since they don't want you to even get out of the car with the top down, I'd say these could be overly cautious....
