Sliding rear window visibility issues

[Michaelkov]

these pictured are all manual sliders. Any pics with power? Assuming that latch is gone

I got the slider but visibility was an issue...it only lasted a few minutes and it was no longer visible at all. Tasty tho...

I'm confused, why two sliders?

I dont see issue with it but I wish they put in the sport trac explorer back window in

It was a small plate

Only has two hands! If he had opposable thumbs on his feet, there would be four sliders!

This what sport track window looks like

Keep it and ditch the side headrests, complete visibility.

You and me both! I still have an 03 Sport Trac my kids drive. I love that giant electric sliding glass!

I agree. But with the dark factory tint, I wish that the window opened to the other side. Looking through the double (when opened) windows is really dark. One does not look through the window behind the driver quite as often.

i wonder if we could get custom sport trac winodw for the maverick some time down the line

Definitely the way to go. I so rarely have back seat passengers that from the back of the driver's seat to the trunk of my car looks brand new compared to driver/passenger area. The headrests can go.

It’s a small window. I get the airflow and transport of lumber advantages but I’m mainly concerned about visibility. This is directed to all those who already have a Maverick with this feature. What is the visibility like looking through the mirror? I’m unsure whether to cancel this option as my build date per my dealer is any day now. Haven’t received that email from Ford but dealer says it will likely come in a few days so any changes need to be made now.

I have one and don’t see any issue. Some say the rear headrests cause more of a blockage than the little window. I use my outside mirrors more than the rear view one. I must admit paying $155 for it bothers me more for the size but I’m used to the whole window going down like in my sportrac.

I am a 78 yr old female senior. I have the slider and have never even thought about vision impairment since i received my '22 Mav in April 2022! I consider it a non-issue.

Since I don't have back seat passengers, I removed the headrests on Day One. Now that really makes a difference! Nice, w-I-D-E open view. I have made use of rear window several times when bringing home stuff from Home Depot/Lowes. I keep one headrest in a cloth bag on backseat floor just in case I would ever have a passenger.
