I currently have a 2008 Escape. You can open the rear glass separately from the rear hatch. This is a feature that we love because we travel with large dogs and can reach into to the back without opening the rear hatch. Now all the newer models of this Escape size SUV’s seem to have the “egg” shape …

lackeyjr: I haven’t vetted them by model year (there are probably exceptions), but a list I found included the Honda Pilot, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Nissan Pathfinder and Toyota Highlander (see earlier post). I’ve seen Tahoe/Suburban/Yukon models with the lift window and some 4Runners with the powe…

That’s why I referenced your earlier post. And I would agree that a roll-down window would likely be the most handy for the OP’s intended purpose.

Normally I agree, but this was a simple question: what small SUVs have flip open windows? No judgment call needed.

That is true. It is not complicated. All I am asking is do you know of any SUV models (Escape Class) that have a rear opening window.

Thank you, I’m looking for the same feature. Great when you have a bike rack on & just want to grab something out of trunk area!

They’re smaller and getting old, but the 2003-8 Toyota Matrix has the separate glass opening. In 2009 the bean counters got their way and dropped the feature.

I stumbled across this page and while reading I was disappointed to find that some people do not know how to properly reply to a question. So I created this account simply to say that people like @VOLVO_V70 are not funny nor witty in their responses.

It is always not technical knowledge, I mean I know points (ie the ones you can adjust with a dwell meter), rebuilds etc. even diagnosed a bad fan clutch for a buds 2009, but the more the merrier, hang around! As I say you cannot even go to sesame street without dealing with Oscar the grouch.

The person asking for help with this rear glass thing asked in 2016 . Spacebat was not looking for a vehicle and I don’t think they are involved with this forum now.
