Will this bag be OK in the heat of the summer in the trunk of a car?

Yes this kit will work in all conditions. This is an outstanding kit for all weather types and first aid needs.

I don't think you would have a problem. If you have added anything such a medications you might want to check the labels as to excess heat.

Depends if you have any bottles. That was my biggest problem and the temperature was barely cool. The bag is skinny 4x6 inches. I can slip my hand into it.

Yes, but I think you should go for something a bit more rigid. This may be too flimsy if your going to be using it often. Mine just holds some things in the trunk that I rarely use.

Hi Stan This bag really isn't made for car top carriers, but if you would put something under it such as a piece do plywood to support it, then it would work. I have to say this bag is a very high quality bag! We use it in our cargo carrier behind the car, and it has stood up to torrential rains, winds at freeway speeds, and 90 degree heat without any problems at all! I'm sure you would like this bag no matter how you use it.

Nope. It's thick, and rain drops would not get in easily, but leave it out in rain and it will get wet, and humidity will sink in. With that said, this bag does not feel cheap. It has a nice thick, firm feel. Worth the money, IMO.

Probably not, it's a pretty sturdy bag, it should hold as much as will fit.

I don't think so. The general consensus (with which I agree) is that this is actually more of a 40 degree bag. You may have to undress a bit for warmer nights but you should be good.

No, because of the velcro opening, rain can get into the bag. It would not be good under heavy rain, light rain would be ok.

No problem. You are welcome. Under porck or carpot will be fine as long don't get snow or rain. Take care of you. Enjoy your bag!

Yes. That is why you want to have the 20 oz. in your trunk, versus the 16 oz., in my opinion. I suggest you also carry some bottled water and an old umbrella.

To be fair engine compartment may be warm, but it should be fine.like insulation. You can layer it. Best to let the sun warm it. I use it on my trunk lid for my speakers. ..use a thick millimeter

I would think so. The plastic is pretty rigid and probably the same type used in automobiles. I have one in Alabama and the summers are 95-100. I am not familiar with a summer in Arizona with the "dry heat" and higher temps. I am quite happy with mine. I use it on my deck to keep my grill and grilling accessories out of the weather. It suites my needs wonderfully.

It will fit in the trunk but not the backseat. It doesn't take up too much space

Hiking from the car to the site is not bad at all, but I recommend that you don't carry this bag while doing extreme backpacking. It's definitely a good bag that will keep you super warm. I hope I answered your question.

The material is lightweight, so it shouldn't be too bad in hot temperatures. However it doesn't breathe well like cotton fabric, so it could get sweaty.

Although I have this bag, I use mine as a lightweight spring/summer/fall bag. That said my guess is that you should get at least 20/25 degrees.

It should be fine. The rack is secured (strap tightening) inside the car so as long as it is secured tightly you should have no problem.
