    Windshields in travel trailers/fifth wheels, worth it?

    I notice windshields are becoming more and more common. My question is; Those of you with windshields, are you glad your unit has one? Do they leak? Are bugs a problem? Personally I think they look pretty cool but the above possibilities concern me.
