I am thinking about downsizing to a Winnebago Sightseer with the one piece windshield. I know the older years had the issue of the windshield frame rusting and cracking the glass. Did Winnebago correct the issue on this modeL?
I knew someone that had a 2008 Winnebago and the metal area surrounding the lower compartments was not primed before it was painted. Nothing but rust was seen when you opened the compartment doors.
I favor the Workhorse chassis which is what I have now.
Anyone have experience with short Winnebagos with the one piece windshield?

Thank you.

2007 Sightseer, no issues with ours either. One side of ours was replaced, inspection showed no rush issues. We've had ours since new, no major issues with it.

I have a 08 Sightseer. Can't speak to the single windshield, but I Never had any rust around the dual windshield frame or any cracking of the glass. I did however experience the rust you were talking about around the storage compartments. I had to refinish every one of them about 12 years ago. No problems since. I too am on a Workhorse chassis. Never looked back on that decision. She still purrs like a kitten.
