Entry level vs. mid level. Vs high end
How would you define travel trailers amongst these three categories? II thought it might be a good topic for discussion. What features do you think constitute the differences. I am particularly think...

People like to disparage the low end units but I think if you want to know about a manufacturer, that's where you start. It doesn't matter what the price point of the components are if the QC isn't there when it's put together. This is especially true if the high end unit is really the low end with all the bells and whistles.
High or low, it takes a pretty educated consumer to see past the buzz words, pretties and hype and really understand what makes a quality RV for their needs. Most everything on my entry level trailer that saves weight and cost has had no negative impact on my ability to camp save one. Both of the cheap thin vent covers were shattered in a golf ball sized hail storm recently. The closest Ameri-lite dealer said they had lost all of theirs too. Funny thing is that when we were replacing ours with high impact versions, I notice we were the only rig in the lot with shattered vent lids. Other than that the plastic sink and cheap cabinets hasn't bothered us. What I do appreciate it the 5/8" wood floor supported every 13" instead of of foam core. That would take a lot longer and be more expensive than the hour or so and $32 to replace the lids.
