oh man, i tell you what, I have done that more times than I care to count, my sliding glass window has saved me numerous times.

Sounds like a very good reason to get rid of it then.

Keep it latched and you should be alright...The extra ventilation alone is worth it.

If someone wants in your truck bad enough,they'll find a way in.Sliding window or non Slider.The way these trucks are,i'm sure you could probably jam a few large screwdrivers or pry bars on the top of the rear window seal and into the cab and pry the window right out.
