Why you should get a convertible

Lower clearance and easier to watch for overhead traffic.

I lived on a residential airport for 8 years. We used to have yayhoos that would drive around on our taxiways or even sometimes our runway. We had big brightly colored signs all over the place to warn people to stay off the taxiways/runway as airplanes had the right-of-way. Some of my favorite airport memories are of the expressions on peoples faces when an airplane buzzed them about 2 feet off of their windshield. Those pictures would have been priceless.....
