Is it important to get dual pane windows?

For personal educational purposes could you explain what "go bad" means?

I don't have dual pane windows (I do fine without them) but I think another advantage might be external noise reduction (educated guess).

Don't even know if I have them.... how important
must they be ???

IMHO they are a must have.

I feel the best answer is to buy all you can afford. 3 years later the time spent might be more months than expected. We live in ours 6 months + every year and had no idea this would be the way it would be when we ordered our 2001 35 ft RK. Because of doing what I just said we are still very happy with our fifth.

If your spending half of every year in it, I would get them. 4 weeks a year I would pass.

I don't understand how or why it would be cheaper to special order than to buy stock.

You should be able to because the dealer has much less overhead on a unit that someone else has paid for and isn't sitting around on his lot. On the other hand, he has less incentive to get rid of one that is bleeding him.

Strange...I would think he would have more incentive to end the bleeding sooner.

Would depend on the dealers situation I guess. On the other hand, an order with a big deposit in hand is free money for the dealer. All he has to do is prep it when it comes in and call the new owner.

That makes sense! I am learning sooooo much!! :)
