What brand of shades do you like the most?
Nice shades are a must for driving your E body.

I've had Ray Ban before. Currently using Revo.

My all time favorite is Maui Jim.
However they are pretty expensive.   :bigmoney:

 Oakleys from 05-08 after that they went super huge and no longer  streamlined
Maui jims are nice too

I love my Maui Jim's, I have a few pairs I bought back in the 90's when they were more reasonably priced & I liked the styling.... These days they are all plastic lenses which I hate & they are all wrap around which isn't my favorite style...

I also have cheap stuff I wear while working...

You can still get Maui Jims with their "super thin glass" lenses in the Castles and one other I've forgotten.  :wave:

Have had Oakley Half Jackets for many years. Several different lens colors depending on the season.
Polarized lenses is a must.
Lately I've been trying different polarized sunglasses with built in 1.5 readers.
None are quite as good optically as my Oakley's for reducing glare and clarity but I can see the instruments and GPS better. They also cost about 20% of what I paid for my Oakley's so I don't mind as much if I scratch and have to replace a pair. Several brands on Amazon, I buy a couple at a time. Can't stand not having shades when driving on sunny days.

I subscribe to the ZZ Top school of sun-glass selection . " Cheap Sun glasses"  :rofl:  If I spent more than $20 I'd either sit on them or loose them guaranteed! As it is not I have a couple pair hanging in the visor. Problem is when I'm feeling "enthusiastic" they fly out of there. :haha:

My driving sunglasses are from Harley Davidson.  Even though I never owned one! 
Contrary to the opinions of some, I am not dumber than I look.
