Recommendation-double wide windows replacement

I need to replace a number of windows on this older double wide. I would like to use a good insulated window like this one..

Has anyone had a good experience using windows of this type to replace the usual outside screwed in aluminum windows that came with the home?
Maybe a better recommendation?
Thanks

Your link only went to a generic HD site, so there was no specific reference to any windows. Aside from the size issue, you can install almost any window into any opening, taking into consideration the existing siding, and jamb depth. Mobile home suppliers will be able to supply exact fit windows, but they may be less than you would expect, since you want to get rid of the originals, anyway. I use a local window supplier for custom windows, as most of the remodeling I do entails "view", and customers want openings certain widths and certain heights, regardless of whether they are "standard" or not. I usually have them custom made to fit the opening.
