What are your thoughts on windows?

[bugglin_bull]

Getting ready to order a new enclosed trailer and have the option to put windows in the box and RV door. What are the pros and cons and how many folks like or hate them?

Thanks for your input.

Been running Windows 8 for about a year now.........still don't like it.

I did put windows in, and do not regret it. It provides enough light to grab things without having to turn the lights on. They also provide more light than the factory 12 volt lights do. I don't see a down side, unless you like a cave and /or plan huge graphics for the outside. Or are R&D'ing something exotic, but most times the windows are high enough people are not able to look in, even so, if you open the door to ride the secret is out.

I have two windows on my enclosed. Love them. I can leave them open as we drive the sleds up the hill, to let out any errant gasoline fumes, with out having to leave the two top vents open, that add too wind drag and I'm afraid will break. I also leave them open during the summer, to promote natural air flow out the top vents and again, keep down the gasoline fumes. The windows on mine are dark tint too, so I don't get any sun light fading on my toys. Even though they are dark tinted, I get plenty of light inside the trailer to get dressed without my 12v lights on.

Down sides?... I would say cabinet or hook placement issues inside the trailer, if you are adding more of either. They are aluminum windows, and I have had them freeze shut/open if I get moisture in the track of the window. My rear window is mounted where the spare tire usually hangs, so I had to remount the spare under the trailer.

For me its a absolute must. Provides extra light and is nice to see outside when chilling out in the trailer. I only wish I had them on both sides and not just one.

I've got 1 in mine and would love to have 1 or 2 more... comes in handy for airing the thing out as mentioned and also works great for gassing up as the gas door is kinda low and the fuel hoses are really short... the window is super quick and easy to slide open (screen too obviously) when needed.
