Window vent shades
HI, first post on the board, I have a 2018 F150 super cab and so far I love it with one exception.
I do not like the wind noise when going down the highway with the window opened a little bit. I am still a smoker and another the issue is that the smoke does not vent from the cab with the window slightly open like most other vehicles I have owned, it blows back into the cab, and that really ticks off the other half.
Has anyone bought window vent shades for their 2018?
What brand, and where did you get them?
How well do they work?
Thanks, Jim

I put Weathertech vent shades on mine that go in the window track. These increase the wind noise a bit when the windows are closed all the way, and even more when the windows are cracked open for venting smoke (
) since both of us smoke when at interstate speeds. It's not objectionable to me except when an 18 wheeler is beside me on the interstate. I have noticed that the rear sliding window is virtually noise free when rolling down the road but it has a tendency to not draw smoke out, seems to pull or create a backdraft (if that's possible). I also crack the rear windows at times as well.
