The American cars looked nice buy were rather poorly made, rusted out very quickly, etc., which then opened the door for Toyota and Honda, who then started making a more dependable vehicle. Now look at the big sellers in the US market. The US auto industry stepped up to meet the challenge, but the damage had been done. Hopefully the US RV industry will quickly notice and learn from history,(Hopefully??).
Maybe this is what the American RV Industry needs as a 'wake up' call?
As long as you have one manufacturer IE Forest River taking over the rest the US RV market there will always be an inferior product.
I was told long ago that a final quality control doesn't exist at FR, they ship products in need of repair leaving the dealer to rectify the problem under warrantee. And there are many who don't claim on a warrantee so FR continue to produce inferior products and make a huge profit.
