Drivers power window

ive seen on the 2017 tiffin open roads that an option was a driver power window, do any of you have this option and was it a good idea?

Comes standard on the Bus. If it wasn't power, I'd be able to open the window faster. No big deal one way or the other for me.

Had it on my 32SA. Not worth it in my opinion. Kind of a hokey set up

I have it on my 2006 Allegro Bay and I really like it. Good for backing up, toll booths, slow traffic, etc.
Still works great after 11 years.

Have it on our 2015 36LA. While I am activly losing weight I am still on the not so good side of being obese. The first few times using it was a challenge but I've pretty much figured out the combinaiton of steps and swings to get into the drivers seat.


Now I must say that the door has been a godsend since our auto steps are malfunctioning and I can exit the coach to get the steps set up properly when they extend. Steps are due to be corrected by the dealer in the next week though. All in all I do like the idea of another egress possiblity for the cab.

OP asked about the power window, not the a drivers door.

Neither love nor hate, but the original setup of opening and closing the window via the switch was counter intuitive so I reversed the wiring to the switch and now it works the way I like.

Have the power window on our '14 qba. Don't use it often, but it's handy to have.

I have it on 2016 31SA. Really it is only used when driving. I like it a lot, BUT it does take away the screen and the cross ventilation. It is all what you want.

Have it and love it. Great for tolls and ventilation going down the road.

Have it. Don't like it. Slower than manual and doesn't open as far either.
