I like the concept of those windows for colder weather and would probably opt for it on the escape hatch if nothing else.

Road grime and dust is why I would opt for a fixed window for the rear of the trailer if the option was available. I'd even be tempted to have the window eliminated there entirely if I ordered another. I do love the light but I can go outside for that.

I had those acrylic windows on 3 of my campers, a T@da and 2 Lance models. They are wonderful windows and my front windows did not scratch at all. Very light and full awning opening, they also had built in night/day shades and screens. I maybe tempted to upgrade, again, if Escape started using those windows.

I have to stand outside and apply pressure to the window arms while my wife turns the window knob in order to close the window .

Does anyone have a solution to #2 ? .I’ve tried lubricating the window’s operating mechanism but it has not helped . Is there away to adjust the mechanism ? .

Thanks

Check that the thin metal parts of the scissor mechanism are not bent (twisted). That happened to mine & I had the same problem. After straightening them, it worked fine.
