Question

What is the best power windows and power locks or crank windows and power locks?

Answer 1

I prefer crank by far, the power locks and windows cost so much extra, although now they are basically standard.  Also if the power locks or windows break as my car did in the middle of winter in Minnesota it sucks to have your window down not have it go back up when you pick up the mail.  The power doors break easily too, if a passenger pulls the handle while you are unlocking then the computer freaks out and you need to get it replaced at the dealer over $500 to fix.  Cranks never fail its just considered inconvenient now.

Answer 2

The big advantage to power windows is that the driver can easily control all the windows in the front and rear; not just the window in the driver's door.  Vehicles with power windows also usually have a lock-out feature that turns off the window switches in the other doors; that means you can keep the kids in the back seat from rolling their windows up and down.

Answer 3

power...why crank
