In days gone by, passengers would pass beer to the driver. That is no longer needed. Today we have extended cab trucks, with seats that fold up. We place the beer cooler in the back seat, and reach between the front seat to get a beer. We used also need a passenger to hold our beer when we wanted to weave in and out of traffic. Now we have built in beer holders in the dash. With those two changes, we no longer need a passenger.sleekcrafter wrote:
One of the requirements for passengers in the camper while under way, was a pass thru to the vehicle. Both truck and camper required a slider for passenger s in the back.
Otherwise how would the camper passengers pass beers to the driver? - it all makes sense now :B

Wayne - bwantedExplorerMy third lance. All the pass thru leaked. Put on lexon and caulked to frame. Dealer could not fix. Even tho I told them to use lexon
- KKELLER14KExplorer IIJust my 2 cents...I believe it is required by law that the manufactures in most states, provide that your able to see through the TC. Not to get off the original post but this question came up a few times in the past when I asked about the entry door on the rear of the TC. I wanted to know why they would install a bottom window at the floor even though I have a slide that mostly blocks it. That is when the issue came up...So I guess the person to ask if you want to know about the front window is the dealer, if you can have one built without it and see what the answer is. I guess that I could do without it and the windows in the door altogether. Just more heating, cooling and leak issues in my opinion. I just re-skinned the door of my TC and left the windows out altogether after I had did a mod to make them dual pane. Just looking to better insulate as I use it full time.

I believe the common requirement for states that allow passengers to tide in the truck camper is two-way communication between the driver and the passengers. A pass-through could meet this requirement however a two way radio is the more common and effective solution. - EfonFredExplorerWe are enjoying our first T/C and it does not have a sliding front window, happy with that.
- nycsteveExplorerI sealed mine shut with Proflex last year. It leaked when driving in very heavy rain.

Ahhhh... beer yes, but I'm sure I would spill my martini, and THAT would be alcohol abuse! ;)
Dak - bfacklamExplorerOur cats like our pass through. We keep their food and liter in the camper. This allows them a little exercise as we drive down the road. Also allows us to reach things in the truck when we are camped for the night.
