Once Commonplace Items You Can't Find In Cars Anymore

The automotive industry has seen many changes over the years. Some once commonplace features in cars are now relics of the an almost forgotten past. Some less expensive cars sold today may offer some of these on their base models, it is becoming more and more difficult to find these features. So you wish any of these were still around?
Vent Windows
You could find these small windows, generally triangular in shape, next to the driver and passenger's windows. They opened up to allow air in without having to roll down the regular window, which had the tendency to mess up hair and let water in. They were created before commonplace air conditioning systems were available, providing a dryer alternative to air circulation. Now that cars come standard with proper air circulation, vent windows have become all but obsolete.
