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...

JiminDenver,
I was NOT bashing low end units/RV's. My post relates to "you get what you pay for" and it's true with most RV's just like the tow vehicle and a home. You want a less expensive model tow vehicle with a V6 engine and very spartan interior and no power anything? Fine, go buy it! If you want a tow vehicle with a big gas engine or a diesel engine with power everything and quiet inside? Fine, go buy it. The price will be very different and so will the vehicle, it's comfort, seat life, resale value, etc.
Same with a 24 X 40 basic home with no garage or basement and linoleum floors on a postage stamp sized lot in a crowded city area and an iffy school district VS a home on the water that's 30 X 60 with a 3 stall attached garage and real wood floors and thick carpet, a finished basement family room/rec room/theater room/etc or walkout on an acre with 150' frontage of pristine sand beach in a great neighborhood and school district? Just might find the prices a little different and the quality of construction very different also and 50 years later which one is still standing and maintains it's extra cost. All construction etc is NOT remotely the same in nearly everything you purchase!
You simply have to pay for what you want that will serve your needs, wants, or desires. No builder or manufacturer will give you the high end everything for the low end price as they wouldn't be even in business. Profit is not a dirty word, it's a a MUST or the doors close very quickly and any assets auctioned off! Why is that so hard to understand?
