Default Sick of the heat inside this car..

Don't know if anyone else has this problem,but my trunk gets so damn hot when im driving.Like it gets very hot,i cant keep anything back their,im not sure if im missing a heat shield under the car from the exhaust or what.
And also,the shifter/center console area gets extremely hot as well,if i have a cold drink in the cupholder its hot within driving in no time.
Is their anything I can do to prevent any of this?

Look on the bright side, it's great for coffee and transporting casseroles to dinner parties.

Yup! Got tired of the heat and finally made a rule that only dead hookers are allowed in the trunk.

That's either rule # 1 or # 2. The other rule is no spitting.

That's definitely not normal. You're probably missing the heatshield over the transmission, plus, it's getting really really hot. Have you checked the heatshield status or changed the transmission fluid...ever?

Simple cost effective solution: Buy a truck and never use the trunk, added benefit is you can transport quite a few more hookers. I forget that the trunk exists and put everything in the backseat......

That's why there's no spare.
