These videos appear to be pre-production or very very early production.
The reason I say this is this....
LOOK at the large 3 piece windows in the living room area. I really like the look of
these windows. But NO GMC that i have seen have them. NONE!
Does anyone have any knowledge about these windows and why they were replaced
for the actual production line?
I believe the frame is made the same as the current 2 piece Liv room windows, with
pieces fitted together to make the size needed.
I am wondering if any of these windows still exist as you see them on these videos
and in some of the advertising pics for the first and a rare few on the second year
brochures.
Wondering why these, which I like better than the large 2 piece window that was used
for production, were scrapped. I have a pretty good idea what happened but wondering
if there are some other thoughts or stories that can be shared.
