D/N shades up or down when Traveling

[Westwind]

Wondering what everyone does with the shades when traveling? The one I'm most concerned with is the large back one since the recliners could hit them if down when traveling, the rest are really not a problem that I can see.

In the winter we travel with them up to allow in light (heat) and in the summer we travel with them down to keep out light (heat).

Always travel with them up, don't like them bouncing around, putting stress on the cords...

I thought I read you are suppose to travel with them down, but then again I've thought I've read a lot of stuff !!!

Since I replaced the rear shades with vertical blinds, we open them and tie them together in small groups for travel. Just gotta remember to shut them before running around nekkid back there once we set up.

We always travel with our down. Eventho our windows are tinted, I still don't want anyone looking in.

 

[Ray LeTourneau]

Ours are down.

I always make a point of pulling them down.

I run with down also.

My wife says put them down but I couldn't care less where they are.

We run with them up. Just a personal preference. Now aren't you glad you asked? Got all sorts of answers!

Another vote for down.

Always keep ours down (year round to keep the sun out), just like the toilet paper, it goes over the top toward the outside! Ha!
2 recliners don't hit the back shade at all.

We always have ours down as well

 

[katkens-DW]

We travel with ours down!!!

Down.
For privacy/security.

We put pillows under the recliners to minimize the rocking and - hopefully - keep them from hitting the windows.

Your concern about the recliner's rocking is what prompted me to start this thread. Right now I have mine straped and movement is minimal, I just have to be sure they don't chafe each other, might pick up a couple of cheap towels at the $1 store to use per a suggestion made.
