    They ran out of green paint? Or maybe it just wasn't popular? I can't remember ever seeing one to be honest.

    Exactly why I own a 2wd. I get the "why just a 2wd" all the time.
    Had 4x4s and had fun with them and had the money to buy another, but I bought 2wd 2011 taco to be a dedicated desert toy and it does this real well.

    I had them on my Evo and plan to put them on the Taco when better quality ones get released. I like them so I can crack the windows while parked somewhere and it doesn't look like my windows are open to anyone else.

    This is exactly why I got the visors for my previous ride. To crack open the windows just a little bit to get some fresh air without anyone knowing that the were open.

    If somebody is looking to get into your vehicle, they're going to get up close and personal enough with it to see whether or not the windows are cracked under the visor. You can bet that.

    Yeah but that requires them to actually walk up to the vehicle and peak under the visor or feel up around the visor. Standing 5-100 feet away you arent going to notice the window is down. If someone is going to break into your vehicle, they are going to break into with visors or without. Just having them doesn't scream "HEY MY WINDOWS ARE CRACKED"

    I put ventvisors on every vehicle I own because in Louisiana it may be 100 degrees and sunny, thenout nowhere it starts raining. The visors allow me to keep the window cracked to allow circulation throughout the day and not worry about water getting in.

    Does your car stink inside? Mine gets circulation when I open the door and drive it. Keeping the windows down in 110 degree heat here in AZ really makes no noticeable difference from my experience. Actually what it does do is invites Wasps into the car and leaves a fine layer of Dust on the interior surfaces.
