There seem to be so many members that say that RVs across the board are low quality, "IF" that is true, what does that say about the intelligence of the owners?
I guess they are willing to settle for junk at very high prices.
My brother won't accept the fact that driving from Los Angeles, CA up I-5 to Eugene, OR is like subjecting an RV to a 8.0 earthquake. Therefore, to him because little items are always in need of repair and our entire RV requires as much maintenance as his home, that RV's in general are junk.
We looked at the Intent a few weeks ago, to me it is a huge, a gigantic even, step down from our 16 year old Adventurer. Both are made by Winnebago Ind., is the Intent junk, no but it lacks the quality components I admire in my Adventurer and I wasn't willing to settle for that level of quality.
So maybe folks buy what they can afford or are willing to invest in but what they purchase is not necessarily junk. There are too many RV owners that love their RV's to use a blanket statement like, "RVs are junk" or that "quality" is not a word you can used to describe an RV.
