I could only get through half the article. Seemed to ramble on and on about the same thing over and over. Bottom line is this: Manufacturers make RV's as light as possible, are not held accountable to ANY standard - either safety or quality, and as long as people keep buying them, they'll keep making them that way. Profit is on the front end of an RV sale. I heard long ago that manufacturers will pad an allowance in the sale of a unit for repairs post sale. So your new coach already has a "fix" allowance built into the price. You have 2 choices, pay a lot of money for less problems, or don't RV. frankly I am amazed sometimes that people who buy one of the most heavily depreciated assets known to man, knowingly buying something with majorly recreational purpose, armed with the knowledge that they are poorly built, accept the fact they lose thousands of dollars driving off the lot, then complain when they have issues. Frankly, buying an RV is a poor choice from a financial perspective. We have all this knowledge about it being a poor product that you lose money on, roll the dice and buy anyway, and then complain. Funny.
