Anyone make a mistake buying first MH ?

Our first coach was an 84 Airstream 34.5' Classic Limited on the P30 chassis with tags. We did absolutely no research, just looked at a lot of different coaches we could afford and settled on the Airstream. Having 82,300 miles registering on the odometer, I figured we would be spending some monies on repairs down the road, which we did. We were quite happy with the coach, even with all the problems we had to fix. With our present motorhome, perhaps we made a mistake in buying this particular brand as approximately 4 months after we purchased it, the company went out of business. So far the coach has given us good service with little or no problems (knock on wood). Had we known the builder was in financial trouble, perhaps we would have bought a Rexhall which has a similar floor plan and amenities as ours.
