The 80/20 rule most likely applies to the salary range posted in the ad. 80% of the techs earn closer to $40k, while only 20% approach the $120k.
RV sales? Sure there are some earning a nice living, but at the big dealerships, likely not as many as you think. When a sale has very little gross profit in the deal (which is common today), many dealers pay a "flat" commission of a measly $200, $300 for a motorhome. If the salesperson is selling 6-10 units/month, that's not much income. Usually, the job is commission only too, so try raising a family on that pitiful salary. That's why turnover is so high in the industry.
