Driving with window removed?

It's my favorite thing to do but I haven't done it as much as I like this summer because of the BUGS!!!
 
All Windows Down, Sunroof Open.  Next Best Thang 2 A Convertible.


Here's Anotha 4 Ya...

All Windows Down
Sunroof Open
DVD Dropped Down
Panels Removed
Backseat Folder Forward
Tailgate Down...People Dont Know Whatthehell Is Passin' Them.

Try It!
 
Here in STL we are getting into Autumn and we had a nice stretch last week when the morning temp was about 55-58 degrees. Took the window out, closed the rest and had a rather nice, crisp breeze through the cab. Loved it.
 
i found that even after a heavy day of offroading, or ranch working  no matter what particles are in the back  flying down the highway they rarely make it into the truck. i think its bc of the design how the back of the roof actually extends over the window.. i even drove in the rain with back windo out with no issues  also makes it very conveinant for your back seat partners to reach the cooler  so you avoid open container laws while offroading
 
No kit neccesary.  If you leave the window in, the crossbar doesnt go down with the midgate and the window stays in place.  If you put the window in the midgate stow away location, it pushes on a lever or something and the crossbar drop with the midgate.

in short: leave window in and drop midgate or put window in storage location(on the midgate) and drop the midgate.
 
I may take mine out this weekend. Been nearly 2years and never removed it
 
I'm storing my Av right now with the midgate down and the window in. I'm hoping that the air change will keep the temp down in the cab. I laid out a blanket so my kids could play in the "tunnel"...I kept the covers on and turned on the light. it's really cool.
 
One word   WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Window out, midgate down, tailgate removed, all others down, is a blast

Looking forward to doing this too...........but we'll have to leave the kids at home!!!!!
 
It's a blast just make sure nothing in the AV is loose or away it goes. >:D
 
I love it. my kids beg me to take it out. I agree that remote would be nice, for me it is always an afterthought...
 
Removing the back window?.. on a nice day?.I drive with it out, windows down and sunroof open quite a bit.  LOVE IT! 

Too late now, but it is a shame that a bit more engineering didn't go into creating a power window that went into the mid gate.  How cool would that have been.  Spontaneous all windows down?.
