is this a confession? /s
Must have been on a track, of course. ;)

Seriously, when we had a C5 Corvette I reached those speeds at VIR.

The windows do move outward a bit (lower pressure outside the window -- Bernolli was right), but I never noticed the wind noise over the high-pitched screams of the driving instructor in the passenger seat as we entered the s-curves at the end of the back straight ...

I can't remember the last car that i had that didn't have frameless- i like it so much better- window down in a frameless door - it looks so much better when you open the door without that big frame. i've had camaros, mustangs, and my audi now all have frameless and have never had an issue in 20 years

I am very happy about the frameless doors because thats what will allow me to store them on board when I take them off, then when I go on my trip, I can travel with the doors off, and can then put them back on at anytime if the weather takes a turn.

I think the doors being frameless will encourage more people to actually take advantage of the ability to take the doors off, and do so more often.

It is certainly more likely that window sealing and/or other issues could arise from repeated removal/installation of the doors themselves. Time will tell.

I think the frame less is a big plus in the sealing department. I own an 02 Thunderbird and the windows are easy to "program" for the closed position with the bird having a hard and soft top this is important, I expect Bronco to be the same.

Lighter doors that take up less space, easier to take on and off... I say sign me up! I'm sure Ford didn't take any short cuts when it comes to road noise and sealing.
