5 Must-have Summer-driving Accessories

Summertime comes but once a year, and you don't want to be left out of the action. When the surf's up, you need to be ready to spring into action. When an impromptu beach party is called, you need to get your grill and your legendary ceviche down to the shore. When you and your broheim brethren decide to take a road trip to the Columbia River Gorge, you need to have enough storage space to handle everyone's luggage, a case of pizza-flavored Pringles and the backseat brew cooler.

The chances that your stock car, truck or SUV is equipped to handle these jobs are slim to none. Luckily, it's easy to get your ride ready for the summer. Here are the top 5 accessories you'll need:

Surfboard Racks

Unless you're fortunate to live in a beachfront Malibu bungalow, you have to travel a few miles from your pad to the paddling-off point. And unless you're rolling in a 70s era VW bus, getting your board down to the break can be tricky without a proper surfboard rack. Mounted to your roof, a surfboard rack provides a sturdy platform for strapping down everything from longboards to fish. Since they're padded, you won't have to worry about dents and dings leading to water logging.

Windshield Sun Shades

Whether you're parked down at the beach or at the office parking lot, the strong summer sun can turn your cockpit into an Easy-Bake Oven in no time flat. You can't always rely on finding a shady spot, but you can always block out the sun with a windshield sun shade. Like insulation against harsh solar rays, a windshield sun shade not only keeps your interior cooler, but it also protects your dashboard from heat cracks and fading.

Neoprene Seat Covers

Summertime and swimming go together like tortilla chips and guacamole. But wet clothes and your upholstery don't play well together. The best way to enjoy the water and keep your interior looking sharp is to install a set of neoprene seat covers. Neoprene is the same material used in wetsuits, so it's your best option for shielding against moisture.

Wiper Blades

Although the pitter-patter of raindrops isn't as frequent in the summer months, high humidity can lead to sudden, violent storms. And last season's wiper blades are probably spent. You don't want to get caught in a May shower with wiper blades that just smear water around instead of clearing it away.

Tailgate Grills

BBQ: it's what's for dinner in the summer. But a traditional backyard grill can be a real pain to haul around to parties, tailgates and camping trips. Luckily, you can equip your receiver hitch with a full-size, full-featured tailgate grill for on-the-go meat-searing action.
