The dual pane windows on our previous fiverwere 2001 vintage and not a single one has every failed or fogged up at all. When I purchase my previous 5'ver used the salesperson did not show the dual pane windows nor were they ever disclosed to me in any other way so I did not knowingly pay a premium for them. First camping trip out with new unit I kept commenting repeatedly to my DW how dead quiet inside of the trialer was. It was only after several days on the road that we opened a window and I notice the thickness and construction of the window glass with the seal between the 2 panes that I realized the unit we bought had dualpane windows. In my experience with the sound insulating value, the lack of cold weather moisture buildup and the heating and cooling insulating values.
I have traded that old trailer now and my new one was ordered with the dual pane windows as I won't be without them now.
Certain manufacturers have had a long history of dual pane window failures. DRV comes to mind. I have spoken with DRV owners who have replaced some windows twice for seal failure and resultant fogging. This was one of several reasons that ultimate caused me to NOT to buy a DRV Mobile Suites.
