I am hearing every manufacturer has multiple product lines and multiple price points and quality levels.
The big manufacturers definitely have multiple product line and build the same vehicles under totally different "makes". Jayco has 10 different models just within their "Travel Trailer" section
(not including camper, toy haulers or fifth wheels). Jayco also build Starcraft and others. Jayco is now owned by Thor Industries, which sells many other RV brands. Starcraft RV are select Jayco models with different color trim and upholstery.
Within the Jayco Travel Trailer products, they have a small/super lightweight product line (Hummingbird) and a "hybrid" product line (Jay Feather 7) and then the others. The Jayco Travel Trailer product line does not seem to have any "overlaps". As you move up the product line, length and features are add. Sadly, when you you one feature
(say 4 bunk beds) you may have to get a lot of other features you don't really care about but drive the cost up.
Within a manufactures products, I do not think you will find a big difference in build quality, bottom to top. Sadly, it seems that there is currently a high demand for RVs but the factories are not near the production volume of 10-15 years ago, so to get the product "out the door", quality looses out to quantity.
