    Paint it blue, it's a cooling colour ;) otherwise, invest in a dashboard fan or having ac installed.

    Make yourself a flask of hot tea or coffee. That will cool you down [dunno about your bus].

    Maybe then have some cold water in a spray dispenser to disperse into the air or your face maybe even your pulse points. .



    That last one being not the best idea i have ever had.

    She wants to cool her van down, not travel at 88 miles an hour and end up in the constellation of Kasterborous, at galactic coordinates ten-zero-eleven-zero-zero by zero-two from galactic zero centre, some 250 million light years away from Earth.

    Her engine just can't handle it.

    :rolleyes:

    Unless things have changed




    • have engine bolts retorqued/ valves adjusted
    • inspect for oil leaks/ other normal pre-road trip checks
    • carry a case of Castrol GTX 20w50 - if the engine's broken in use RoyalPurple 20w50 (synthetic oil) instead



    other than that bring something to do while driving......

    50mph is boring. *g*
