You should open the window or else you will get a lot of buffeting noise

I roll my back window up a bit to let the air flow. Some say with the back window closed the wind will stretch the top...

Just open the zipper up the sides 6 " or so to let some air out. I think even with the door windows down you will get some buffeting

Must be a 4dr specific issue... I have a 2dr and when I open my sunrider and nothing else I have no problems.

In fact I JUST got home and had my sunrider open the whole day.

I just unzip each side of the rear window (just pull the zipper to the top but not around the bend). Opens up some airflow and prevents ballooning.
