Yeah but mechanical car door handles aren't "Cool." You don't want to have a car that isn't cool, right?
Some GenZ kids were talking about how cool rolling up a window with a handle was and wished it was in cars again. It was refreshing to hear.
When electric windows became a thing I considered it a downgrade because it meant that I couldn't roll down my window when the engine was off.
More fancy bits is just more bits to break.
I'm still worried about going over a bridge and not finding a smashy object fast enough.
As a 25 year old Gen Z I love my manual window rollers on my 1991 Jeep Cherokee.
I was in a 2024 Cherokee and it was insanely frustrating trying to get the window to where I wanted it.
It also looks absolutely nothing like a Jeep Cherokee. They should just say Jeep SUV on them.
