For 19 yrs I'v put this kind of stuff in my tiny Hyundai Elantra (wrapped of course at the ends). I've hauled small trees & 8' lumber in my tiny car over the yrs, not ideal but hey it worked. I'm beyond thrilled to finally get a small pickup truck (hopefully by May) and give away my 19-yr old car (though still running strong).
The reason to get the sliding rear window is so the dog(s) can hang out of it.I’ve seen several people asking why, especially since it is small. Here is why, I could have hung it out the back, but this was in the bed with the tailgate closed.
SkeeterB! I lived in Texas for 8 years and as I recall there were two days each year I could "crack" a window - the seam between winter and summer (called spring in other states) and one between summer and winter (called fall in other states). Good for you! I'll be visiting my kids this summer in DFW and Wichita Falls - hope to road trip in my XL - late March build date.
anyways. Glad youre happy and have your truckOur last three F-150s had sliding rear windows and we made great use of them just for this. Sometimes I'd close the tonneau with the one or two boards on top and snug the window against the boards and wifey held them steady inside.I’ve seen several people asking why, especially since it is small.
