Ikr? They give you precision the electric ones can't match. I wish there was an option to have both simultaneously.

Never have I ever, on any occasion, felt I needed any kind of precise control over any car's window.

[–] Ansis@iusearchlinux.fyi 9 points 1 year ago

I'm guessing precise control is nice when you need a gap of very specific height in order for the air to make a difference but not be overwhelming.

Lucky you; each to their own.

You can use it while your car is off. And like another said it's more reliable. But obviously its a minor thing and there's a reason new cars dont have them. Still miss it tho lol

The electric ones could match it, but the designers choose not to give you a "slow mode" button, or any other number of ways to do it. I'm sure it has been suggested and shoot down by someone deeply concerned with costs and overcomplication.

This. If they made a kind of toggle switch, think like an analog stick on a controller or like the dimmer adjuster that you roll. Something like that would be nice so you could just get that exact spot you want.
