On various RV Forums I often read owner's writings about the many issues they have with initial quality with lots of trips to the dealership to get things fixed. More than a few recommend buying used to avoid all those initial quality problems and get one with all the kinks worked out (maybe...wouldn't want the one from the article!!!)
Being a long-time RVer, but new to these forums, I was shocked because I've owned many new RV's, including two gas Class A's and one Class A DP (along with several towables). I'd have to say that overall we've had just a handful of initial quality issues and none of them were anywhere close to serious in nature. Most were not even really the fault of the coach builder, but rather something like a generator or other installed equipment.
Now, the last new RV I bought was back in very early 2009, which was a Newmar. Perhaps things have gotten a lot worse over the last decade.
We always try to do a LOT of study on the manfacturing of the RV...how well are they built by any given brand? Perhaps that is why we have rarely encountered issues. Or...perhaps we've just had an unusual amount of luck. On the other hand, I often overhear people at RV shows who clearly have done no research, but are falling for that "shiney penny" they see. Big mistake.
