What would I need one of those for? Nearly 20 years since I've had a

So I've heard. I'd get one before my first long-distance highway trip.
But for the first while it would be commuting, running around town and
day trips to the twisties in the country.

That's the sort of thing I was thinking of: tall screen for winter,
short one for summer, and whichever I found I preferred for the
occasional long trip.
