Unless it's raining, my windows are generally down unless I'm doing 60+ on the highway...and even then, my windows may be down. As another stated, even in the winter with temperatures in the 30's. I just turn on the heat and turn on the heated seats if I'm cold.

I grew up sailing and able to feel wind, and like Dale Earnhardt, I can "feel" other cars around me because of the wind pressure. I also use my mirrors and such, but having the windows down give me that extra sensory input that helps keep me situationally aware. Plus, I love the wind through my hair (even if I don't have a convertable).
