Old Style Sliding Windows

Sometime in the last year read and small article in either FMCA or Motorhome about a manufacturer offering and option for the old style windows in lieu of new frameless awning type windows.

Does any recall the article or manufacturer?

Thanks, 1st post,

Larry

We actually stopped looking at used coaches past 2013 because that was the last year with the sliding windows. Those frameless windows don't look like a good idea to me.

I have a couple of hanging cages for the cats to go out in. They will not work with the new frameless windows so I purposely stayed away from rigs that had them.
I see some stories about the windows falling out and I saw a used Country Coach (one model above mine) that had one like that.
They are nice in that they can be left open for a little (very little as I understand it) ventilation in the rain.
