You can use it while your car is off. And like another said it’s more reliable. But obviously its a minor thing and there’s a reason new cars dont have them. Still miss it tho lol
The electric ones could match it, but the designers choose not to give you a “slow mode” button, or any other number of ways to do it. I’m sure it has been suggested and shoot down by someone deeply concerned with costs and overcomplication.
This. If they made a kind of toggle switch, think like an analog stick on a controller or like the dimmer adjuster that you roll. Something like that would be nice so you could just get that exact spot you want.
Maybe I live around people who prefer old cars, but I feel like crank windows are still used quite a lot.
In addition to the precision some other lemming mentioned, they are more reliable, because a lot of stuff can go wrong in electrical systems and button windows rely on those being in working order (I also imagine that less people would know how to repair the electrics).
just upgraded my car but i miss my crank windows
Ikr? They give you precision the electric ones can’t match. I wish there was an option to have both simultaneously.
Never have I ever, on any occasion, felt I needed any kind of precise control over any car’s window.
I’m guessing precise control is nice when you need a gap of very specific height in order for the air to make a difference but not be overwhelming.
Yeah I’m either a fully open or fully closed kinda guy.
Lucky you; each to their own.
