On GM's 1978 & later A-body midsized(of which I owned one), the backseat windows did not roll down. I recently found out that this was also the case with their X-body compact sedans.
Now I'm not asking about why they didn't roll down all the way. No. In the aforementioned cars, they didn't roll down at ALL - and no provision was present to roll them down - either a crank or power button. I'm probably the first person ever to ask this question on line.
What was GM thinking? Was it cost-cutting? Safety? Or something else? Weirrrd.
