Has anyone removed the rear window to ventilate the bed for adding a shell?

I need to create a space for the family dog, and that’s only possible with ventilation from the cab through the rear fenestration. Has anyone tried this?

No one has posted anything like that I know of; just that the edges of the wall are very sharp without the window glass there so something will need to be done if you do that.

And don't forget the void that leads to the tonneau storage.

Find it funny that ALL the other windows are 599.00 and Cybertruck is 799.00. Smallest window and most expensive. Seems a little suspicious. I kinda get a Cybertruck Tax vibe?
This is exactly why I didn't order it from them. BS practices based on greed. Not that much R&D cost going into it.

you will want to keep the window closed if you drive on a dry dirt road. A lot of dust gets in the bed.

The dust comes into the bed from the small gap at the base of the tailgate. You can fairly easily cover that area to prevent the dust from entering.

The HVAC system likely won't be able to keep up, as the bed isn't insulated/sealed like that cabin is.

(Also likely the reason tesla skipped that idea=$$).

The biggest reason is the tonneau rolling through there and liability. They actually said this in an interview after launch.

Guillotine hazard. Though maybe the sensors will be smart... but people thought that about the Frunk too

With the opening do you think it’ll be big enough for the average person to be able to climb in and out of the vault/cabin?
