Summers here bring about 48 days at 90°F or hotter. That is enough to finish off a tired battery or a weak AC compressor, so get both checked in spring rather than on the first hot day.
Lows drop to freezing on about 76 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over.
Only about 8 inches of rain fall in a year, so it is sun, not water, that ages a car here. Rubber parts, wiper blades and dashboards crack sooner.
