double pane windows worth it?
Looking for a new 5er. One dealer said that the double pane windows only increase the R insulation factor by +1 or +2. That may be, but I also thought the double panes decreased the water condensatio...

whether the R value is .85 or 2, it still sucks as an insulation factor.
feel your walls in the winter. when they are cold do you really think a little more glass will make a big difference?

It's the dead air space that makes the difference, not the layer of glass.
Biggest benefit to us was noise reduction. We tailgate in noisy parking lots and it made a noticeable difference.
I agree. Walk on to an RV lot close to a highway. Go into a rig without doublepanes and then one with. It is a huge difference. The condensation thing is nice too.
