Default Rear window buffeting

Last night I rolled down just the rear windows to listen to my exhaust. It'* been a while since I could do that. The driver rear window hadn't worked forever until I swapped the motor a few weeks ago, only for the passenger side to quit a few days later. It magically started working again last night. Well, with the front windows up, I got a fairly strong, rhythmic buffeting that I first thought was my exhaust, but it only changed with speed, not RPM. So it'* wind only. If I crack a front window ever so slightly, it goes away. Anyone else'* do that?

All cars do to one degree or another. Including my Bonneville and Honda. Crack your sunroof to vent. That'll help too.
