Sun visor thingy

I've been looking for a cool visor to block the sun out of my F150 when I'm at work. Haven't seen anything cool. Then I was driving home and saw someone with the cardboard kind that was a print of diamond plate and a ford oval in the center. Anyone know where to get one of these or where to get something cool...no sunsets or smiley faces!!

Thanks!!

I have the 'diamond plate w/ford oval' sunshade.

Got it at AutoZone for $10.00.


Later,

I use one of those chrome looking style sunshades that folds up like an accordion. It works so well, it's amazing!! Lowers the inside truck temp by what feels like 50 to 60 degrees on some days. I've never found the cardboard/flimsy foam style to work all that well. The key is to find one with the highest reflectivity you can. I have seen the ones you are talking about, and they are at some auto parts stores in different states. (I move around ALOT) If they are not available around you yet, they will be soon I bet. Good luck finding one!!,,,,98

Tinting your side windows helps VERY much as well. Just something to think about if your truck isn't tinted "yet".

Cool

I got my reflective sun shield the kind with the diamond aluminum look with the Ford emplem in the middle at Pep Boys. It is the soft folding kind not the stiff cardboard kind. Relly shiny and really works especially here in Texas. I think I paid about $10

I'd agree...here in KC the past couple of days it's been over 100. (However, that's Christmas in Texas, right? I used to live there, and born in OK, so that's what I tell them up here...)
With the vent wing (ex-cab) windows open and the reflective folding shade, it stays really cool. I got mine in a metallic blue that matches the truck, almost.
