On past F150s, I've use the low profile stick on visors. Looking for the same low profile. Never had a set of in channel visors---do you recommend? Pics? I like to leave my windows cracked during the summer heat.
The only recommendation I'll make on this is to NOT get the Ford ones. They're garbage! They physically stick onto the loose rubber trim inside the window opening, and towards the rear of the window the plastic molding of the wind deflector hits the window as it's rolling up which often causes it to go back down because it thinks there's an obstruction. Total trash, I kept them for about a week, then ripped them off and tossed them in the trash.
Get ones that adhere to the door frame on the outside of the door.
I prefer the ones that go in the window channel, I’ve only ever used the Weathertech ones. The only issue is after a few years of use your window will have scratches around the edge, you’ll only see them with window part way down.
I forgot to mention I only put these on front windows, don’t like fit on rear quit using rear long ago.

I have used only in-channel AVS and Weather Tech. Have AVS on my truck now.
Low profile, in channel. Mine snapped into the channel, used no adhesive, fit great. No problem on window bounce back for the passenger side, drivers side bounce back does happen, seems weather temp related as it will take a set in winter and summer when the temps stay more consistant. I have head them on for 3 years. KM
Just an FYI, in-channel will stretch your window seal. I've always gone with stick on as it does not interfere. My last couple trucks I have not bothered to get them as my main purpose was to keep the windows cracked in the summer when parked outside at work to keep some fresh air circulating. If it rains and is windy enough, water will still come in.
I had some in channel but they went all the way down to the bottom of the window. They were ok but just never were right. The AVS posted above look like they would be a good set.
I now have the AVS stick on and anfter almost 3 years they're still on tight.

I did use similar to your description WeatherTech. Took a year for the mounting tabs to break. They worked fine till then without window bump back. Have WeatherTech on my wife's 2016 Edge Sport since we bought it 2016. KM
window Vent Visors?
