Happy one year anniversary CUBE!  I just arrived in Victoria, BC after 6000km of driving from MONTREAL.  Lots of photos and stories to post SOON.  But firstly, I can not stop listening to this song.  I discovered it from Pitchfork's top 100 songs of the year.  So now....the new summer Cube Schedule: crank "Golden Phone" and bounce around while driving with the windows down.....I *heart* "Micahu and the Shapes".  Happy Birthday CUBE.

hey Cubers, is it just me, or is the Air Conditioner totally useless?  I dont want to bad-mouth the beloved CUBE, but I recently drove down to NY, and for anyone who has been on the New Jersey Pikeline driving into Manhattan at rush hour in the summer heat, it is FRICKING STRESS-HELL!!!  I had a car full of people, no clue of what exit to take, huge trucks and cars were whizzing by honking and there was no AIR FLOW what-so-ever.  I was sweating buckets and we had to roll all the windows down just to breath, which added chaotic traffic noise to the already peaking stress levels overflowing in the car.  Did I miss something in the manual?  Is it broken?  With the "auto" setting, cranked to max it goes down to 18 degrees, but still....no air flow. When I have air circulation from outside, there is some air, only while driving, which does not help if you are at standstill in traffic.  HELP?! Anyone else?  Must admit, it was super fun to drive into NY City with the CUBE!  Music blasting!  But cool air would have been.....cool.   MORE STORIES SOON.
