Reducing the heat trapped inside your vehicle is beneficial from a comfort perspective, but also to keep your vehicle operating properly. With all the electronics inside your vehicle, extreme temperatures could damage them over time. Anything you can do to reduce the temperature will be beneficial and here are some tips to consider.
Tinted windows are very helpful in blocking some of the intense sunlight that heats your vehicle.

You will still pass a state inspection with tinted windows, but you will be subject to receiving a ticket if a police officer pulls you over for having too dark of windows.
Small things you can do on any trip you take that won’t cost you any money include:
You could also consider purchasing visors to put at the top of your windows so the rain won’t enter when you crack them slightly. These small steps can go a long way in reducing the heat inside your vehicle significantly and extending the life of your vehicle at the same time.
