I understand your point about RV construction, but I personally wouldn't want to get HUD or the NTSHA involved, and have them make standards for RVs. With regulatory capture, it might be that after HUD gets done with things, a bare bones class "C" costs $250,000, and existing rigs have to have building permits given in order to have it re-roofed, add an inverter, or change the water heater. It also might be that RVs would be placed under building laws, where if one doesn't keep their rig inspected, even if it sits on their property, it could be condemned and hauled off at the whim of the government.
I personally would avoid getting the government involved no matter what. Instead, I'd vote with your dollars, and go with a higher end unit like a Winnebago, Coach House, Phoenix Cruiser, Nexus RV, or other brand. Bringing HUD in would mean a lot of unforeseen consequences.
