Can RV'S be built better, undoubtedly. I know mine is made out of cheap materials with cheap labor. This is personal opinion but I think RV'S were built better prior to 2008 crash. When the market picked back up they had to find a new labor force of untrained workers.
That said my cheap RV allows me a affordable way to see my country. I can't afford a 2 million dollar Prevost motorcoach.
I'm not disillusioned into thinking these are quality built rigs nor do I think 20k is a lot of money for a house.
That and they set sales records last year and are projected to do so this year. I read RV Business everyday. Quite often there's an article about expansion. Where's the qualified help coming from?
I was in commercial construction for 30 years. Every time there was a boom, we had all the riff raff working. Constant baby sitting.
I hate to say it but it's going to take a big down turn to bring back some quality across the board. Usually when work slows the less qualified are lay'd off. That leaves the better ones to do the work. Less chance for error. Sign of the times.
