Sub-attraction Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 80's law?? My 2002 vehicle rear windows go all the way down. I think the whole safety thing was what car salesmen made up to cover those cars whose design precluded full window retraction. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssaldana Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 Before getting the lgt, I just recall how annoying it was riding in other people's cars with the window not completely down. <--- Driver and Obsessor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John M Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 My 01 Grand Marquis has rear windows that go fully down because of its design. It's got a stationary triangular portion at the back that's impossible to do on a frameless window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agctr Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 OMG And just think, Subaru have kept this feature regardless of the country the vehicle has gone too, what will come next ???? Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfaxe Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 OK, we all know that the windows don't go down all the way. (I'll spare you the obvious GF/Wife comparisons :wink: How about going up? Is there a safety that keeps the little brats... er.... children from getting their head or neck or arm caught on the 'upswing'? Perhaps someone can test this out. Unfortunately all the kids in my neighborhood are a bit too wiley and swift for easy capture. Perhaps that pudgy one as he gets off the school bus?

agctr Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I think there is a cut off only when the window cant move up anymore, but dont think there are any sensors that will actually stop prior to hitting something. Rimfaxe, if unable to get one of the local kids, try a lost cat or wayward dog, that could always work.... Adam. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had considered it instead of buying a Legacy but after the test drive I'm buying a Subaru! The blower kit for that car is $4k and results in ~ 13.5 @ 102-103 1/4 mile times. It's shocking to see a Grand Marquis move that fast but I hate the thought of not having traction when I need it. I'm perfectly happy with the rest of the car - it's not your standard old-folks Grand Marquis.
