Gotta be careful who you cheat on ;), on a more serious note, mine’s still intact. What caused it?

Not the rear, but the drivers. This was almost 3 years ago. Truck was at 21k miles. I couldn't find any object's impact mark. It just blew like that while driving. Sounded like a gunshot.

Check the rear cab vents between the cab and bed. To much cab pressure can cause this.

I had that happen to driver's window and the rear passenger at the same time on my old work truck lol ... I though I was getting shot at .... But the dealership said it had to do with pressure build up like @huntergreen said ... especially during summer it's best to leave a window cracked, these windows aren't like the old ones, they shatter really easily with pressure, similar to the damn manifolds, the end up warping and have to bends somehow somewhere and so they end up shattering ....
