Entry level vs high end

Question while we think we know what we want I do have a few more questions,I will use forest river has a example what is the difference in a wildwood heritage glen or a sabre. Vs a high end model is it the difference in the quality of the mattress I can replace the mattress. The brand of tv I can go to Best Buy and get a better quality, we all know the quality of the tires are poor I can put in higher quality tires and rims .I can put in better furniture so what is the difference overall ?

    One way to look at them is the weight per length. When I do a side by side comparison between the two models you specified, a slightly longer Heritage Glen unit weighs 500 pounds less than the Sabre, slightly shorter.

    Generally, those extra pounds are used to build strength and insulation.

    Compare similar length models and look at the UVW of each unit.

    More glitz, so everyone will go "Uhhhh.... Ahhhhh..."

    Real wood cabinets with polished finishes vs particle board with wall paper simulated wood.
