rain vents - are they worth it
 

when i bought my truck the sales chick thru in a set of ford rain vents and im think about finally putting them on. the truck is true blue and the vents are smoked so i think they wont look bad but my old man has a set on his 2000 f150 and the wind hitting them makes an annoying sound. im just curious if this is gunna happen to me also when i put them on? let me know if u have the vents and if they cause any noticable wind noise. thanks guys

For me... louder with windows open, no difference with windows closed...

I love mine. . :D

Luv mine too!!!:smoke:

next to exhaust one of the best mods!

Allows me to get some fresh air into the cab on the steamy / rainy days here, keeps the windshield clear. Not only didn't I notice any added noise, they seemed to cut down the windows down noise a hair...

I got mine so I can keep my windows cracked on those really hot days and the best part about it is that no one can see if you have your window open. It also allows you to crack the windows on those hot rainy days too. Dang does it make a difference when those two are cracked open and there is some fresh air going in the truck on a 85F+ day. It helps when I turn the A/C on too. I think that vehicles these days should automatically come with them. I had them on my '99 and I loved them.

That about sums it up for me as well.

If they weren't so darn ugly I'd get a set too. No offense but I'm convinced Lund had a hand in their creation.

Exactly. . Try doing an ALL Black truck with 100 degree days. . :mad:

get em.

ive never thought about it tho, is there actually less wind noise without having those?

Which is the best brand / model??

I like the looks of the weathertech's - they seem more streamlined and slimmer then other brands.

I got the lund but after looking at the weathertechs I'd get those instead. Definitely worth it for ventilation and keeping rain out with cracked windows.

Whatever you do, get the "in channel" vents. The others stick on the outside and look tacky....
