What’s old is new again. 1930’s car cooler.
That would be genious if it didn’t need an open window.
Yeah, who doesn’t want hot and humid air blowing in their face on a hot and humid day?
Better than nothing.
Don’t forget about the bugs! Bees and wasps, funnelled right at your face. Pure, car crash convenience.
I’ll be honest. I think insects are either learning not to go around roads or there are way fewer insects. I can’t remember the last time I had a bug on my windshield
The insect apocalypse is real.
Every gas station used to carry bug-b-gone to get the guts off your windshield and headlights.
We’re something like 75% down seasonally and 80% down midsummer since 2000.
I hate bugs but it makes me sad for the critters that eat bugs because they’re generally awesome and cute.
Real easy to slap some wire mesh in there and let it filter out the bugs
This cannot be good for your fuel efficiency.
Neither are other methods of air conditioning/circulation.
man my old Cruze dropped about 1/3 of its power efficiency if you wanted to use AC while trying to get up to speed and merge on the highway
gotta cut the cooling to engage the afterburners
As a geek, I want to refer to this as transferring life support to main engines.
I wasn’t trying to imply they aren’t.
They could just remove the front and rear windshields and wear goggles.
ooooook, in the city this would create your own smog box!
Where do you think the ac gets it’s air from? Either inside the cabin, or the same place this thing gets it’s air from.
Except the car’s HVAC system passes air through a filter. How much of a difference that makes is going to depend on the type of filter and whether it’s been changed sufficiently often, but it’s definitely doing more than nothing.
