Drive with lift glass open?

[KMeloney]

I shattered the glass of my ‘09 slamming it closed on a cold night. Burst into a million pieces. Scared the crap out of me.
Hopefully the glass in these models is a little sturdier. But I rarely ever pop the rear glass after that episode.

I picked up some wood a few weeks ago in my '04 and left the glass up with the wood sticking out. Short trip, just a couple of miles, at in-town speeds. I have newer struts on the glass and it stayed up fine. Not many bumps along the way, though. YMMV
