The reason is simple...having a window in the back is a monumental waste of valuable real estate. My DP had a wall to wall closet in the back. Some other models use a portion of the rear for a washer and dryer and the rest as closet space.
Sorry, I don't buy that the reason is that simple.
If it is, then why is it that almost ZERO coaches ever built on a rear engine chassis offer such, yet coaches built on various front engine chassis do offer such in many floorplans?
There's got to be some reason related to the engine being back there, that they just will not put a window back there. It may well be 'cause of all the nasty diesel fumes being belched out back there, that you don't have as much of with a front engine chassis.
