Ted,
I saw this guy at the RV show at the Fairplex in Pomona. I had no idea he was so proud of his window coverings!! With estimates like that I bet he still hasn't done a Prevost.

I had expected something in the range of 1800 to 2000, but the 3500 number was, I figured was his way of saying they didn't want the job.
This outfit makes a nice shade and we had them on a previous motorhome and never had any problems with them.
Jan just ask me what I was posting about and when I told her, she reminded me that it was the curve in the windshield of our older Prevost that bothered the guy. I don't remember that, but I'm thinking she is right.
So, a newer coach with the flat front window might be a different story cost wise.
Jon,
They look clean and sleek to me, especially when I am driving, I can only see the Smart on the rear view camera.
I do not care one iota how clean and sleek it looks to anyone else!

Peter, All kidding aside, have you considered getting an article about your Smart carrier in FMCA or some of the other magazines? I think a lot of people would be interested in seeing it, along with understanding the engineering that went into doing it.

I would be very interested in learning more about this. Is there a post on POG with pictures? I seem to remember something from a while back.
