I think that the same will happen to the RV industry as it did with the Auto industry. If Japan ever gets into the RV industry their in trouble. Right now they have a captive audience, wait until they get some quality competition! Unfortunately I don’t think it will be any time soon.
I retired from Pratt & Whitney Aircraft as an Engineer for 30 years and I saw our company do a complete turn around on quality.

Why do you think that the Auto Industry cleaned up their act? It’s not because they were concerned about quality to the consumer, it’s because the consumer had a choice of other quality products that were far superior to theirs and they were losing money. That’s the bottom line. Until this happens in the RV industry we are ever stuck with these inferior products.
Although I have to say my trail-lite B-Plus has been trouble free so far for 12 Months and 13,000 miles. Knock on Wood !!!
