Can Anyone Tell Me What Year....
What year wood frames in RV construction were replaced with steel/aluminum framing? I'm sure different companies might still use wood framing or a combination of various materials, but I am wondering ...

Wowowowowow...how is anyone ever going to be able come to a conclusion wood vs aluminum?
From my perspective the bottom line is rot. The poster lives in LA and as long as the only RV'ing you are ever going to do is in the warmrth and dryness of southern Ca, Az, and Nevada, your choice of building types is moot. If, however, you are going 'all over', then one needs to be aware of the potential for rot. RV's leak if not well maintained, usually thru the clearance lights, front facing window ...do NOT get one with that...and rear caps, and any seams (some cheaper RV's have seams in the front cap).
You don't see RV's/trailers/TC's just laying on the side of the road having come apart. Unless they have been in an accident, of course.
Triple E's are metal frame.
