Hi everyone. I am having the windshield replaced on our Tuscany class A diesel pusher. After a lot of calling around and false promises from others in the glass field I found one of the few places that actually specialize in replacing RV glass. A company named RV Glass Solutions By Coach Glass. They have a number of locations and the closest to me is in Elkhart, Indiana. Had to wait 2 months to get in. I'm scheduled to take the coach to them next week. They quoted me $3047.40. I'll let you know after the install and trip home how everything went.
 
Our 2023 Tuscany is on the third windshield. They can’t get it to seal which is a structural issue that has led to litigation.

UPDATE: We (I mean Buster and I) took the coach in for the windshield replacement. They did a fine job and we stayed 2 nights in their lot watching TV. We took the TOAD with us so we just went out to eat or brought food back to the the rig and ate in it. Buster enjoyed his uninterrupted time with daddy. The guys at the facility were great and did a fine job. No issues whatsoever.
 
We had coach glass installed as a replacement. We do notice it is a lot nosier than original.
 
The reason why replacement windshields almost never seal or crack, or are louder then Oem is because the replacements are not nearly as thick as Oem, which is why they leak, don’t fit the seals properly and move or are glued in to seal them causing them to crack, insurance companies use them because they are cheaper .
