I know a guy who filled the tank of his gas vehicle with diesel and seized the engine.

Several months and thousands of dollars later, when he gets his vehicle back, he pulls up at the gas station and does it again... ?
I didn't think that was possible? The diesel nozzle is a bit larger and shouldn't fit.

Blasphemy! You must succumb to your humidity overloads, now!
Never! Well, I don't have a choice but to accept it, but will always hate summer here. grew up here and question myself daily....

I don't know that you ever get used to it. Been here 20+ years. I don't mind the open air in the summer as long as we are rolling. It's the stop lights that are awful. Hopefully you can get the soft top fixed cheaply.

You are not alone...I did it backing into the garage but luckily for me the garage upper board gave way and flexed and no damage to the soft top or garage. Did it like the week after I put the lift on last month. Now I make sure I remember to stop once I start to back in to the driveway, even if I have the top up...make it a habit now.
