- RoyBExplorer IIAbout the only thing I use my F150 rear sliding window is to throw my empty beer cans in the bed of the truck. If I had a TC I would probably continue the same process hehe... I'm a bit too big to crawl thru the window.
Roy Ken - MikeJinCOExplorerThe dog decided she is too good to go thru it and it makes the cab noisier Nuff said
- BigfootchevyExplorerDidn't use it at all.
Paul - fatmanobxExplorernope
- Exact_MassExplorerIn ten years of use, I've never used it to pass anything through. Actually, the truck window stays closed essentially all the time; the one in the camper is closed during transit and opened for ventilation as appropriate at other times.
- exhaustipatedExplorerDon't use mine at all.
- Dog_FolksExplorerI am no longer a TC owner, but am curious. If no one uses the pass through window, what was the window designed for?
I had always thought it was for communication between any passengers in the TC and the truck. - run100ExplorerWe’ve had pass-thru windows on both our campers and love having the feature for the following reasons:
- Yes, upon occasion, my aging bones have been squeezed thru the tiny pass-thru window to retrieve something from the truck. Also, when the lock failed on our camper’s door, all four of us still gained access to the camper by climbing thru the pass-thru window, so we could eat lunch.
- When first pulling away from home or campsite, having the pass-thru window has saved us, because since we can then hear sounds in the camper, we’ve been alerted to an open window, or a door/drawer left unsecured. So, the pass-thru also serves as my my built-in airhead protection!
- During periodic stops along the road, it's been nice being able to pass food, drink or clothing between the truck and camper.
For our family, we enjoy having the window. Note: we use a foam boot at the pass-thru and recommend the product. - romoreExplorer IIOne of our trucks has a pass through, we have only used it once when Dang Dawg jumped on the door switch. DW got a nearby skinny kid to crawl through and open the door after I popped the window open with a screw driver (far too easy).
- billtexExplorer IIWe don't use it for access to the truck...but it is a great source of ventilation...especially for the dog.
Open the slider (ours has a screen), turn on the FF and there is a nice cool breeze blowing through the whole camper...
