Fixed front window on Forest River trailers

One of the disappointing things about my (new to me) Forest River trailer is that the front window is fixed in place and does not open, even though it has a cover on it. I have the walkaround bed option. Does anyone here have a model year 2013+ FR travel trailer that does have a front opening window?

Most manufacturers no longer use opening front windows (even if under a cover) due to previous bad experiences with leaks. As Rvers, we are the proving and testing grounds for all the good and untried innovative ideas. Just saying.

Maybe so, but I just sold a 17-year-old Fleetwood that had the feature and after 14 years with it, I never experienced a leak there, perhaps because it had a vertical front.
