I'm sure, though, that a Cab will be exactly right for you.

Boy, I hope so. I just spent a fortune laying in a supply of sunblock in anticipation of this one. That stuff is nearly five dollars a tube!

I am having the same problem as sujal--with both windows open and the sunroof closed, I get a very annoying resonant vibration at speeds over about 80-85 mph

Try tilting the roof open when having both windows down.

if sunroof is closed, this would also be a problem on a non sunroof car, wouldn't it?

as suggested, tilting sunroof should alleviate the issue
