Well maybe, now the next time you go to change your insurance there will be a record of a claim in the insurance data base and do not be surprised if they don't charge you more because you have had an "incident"

I was t-boned in an intersection where a lady ran a red light witnessed by an on duty Rochester Police officer, her insurance accepted 100% of the liability, but because under NY state law there is no fault the medical costs are covered by your own insurance. when I went to get RV insurance they claimed that was an incident.

I have found the best thing to do with insurance is have a high deductible, cover any small damage myself and use them for disasters.

Comprehensive claims don't go against your premium, only collision and liability. And I've been with the same company for 38 years, no plans to change. Life is pretty good, eh!

For us non-window people can someone explain resealing? And what is the difference from resealing and what is done in Searcy, AR.? I have one window fogged and is this something a local RV tech can repair? Also I need to replace the rubber trim inside several window frames; so where would I find the correct size? Local window shop, dealer, manufacturer, where?

Lots of questions but I have never dealt with windows.

Thanks!!

Take a look at this video



The spacer in between the two pieces of glass is
saturated with a dessicant that dries any stray
moisture. The seal is like a caulk/glue thatkeeps
the moisture out. When seal failure occurs, more moisture
enters the airspace than the dessicant can absorb, causing
the cloudy film.

That's an interesting idea. I wonder if Flo would raise my rates tho for filing a claim?
