Don't overlook the fact that, while not an insignificant cost, component transport is relatively efficient. Moving RVs involves paying to move empty boxes full of air. Lance has a huge west coast market and the cost of transporting RVs there from the Midwest would easily consume any possible savings on parts freight. Consumers look at the OTD price, which includes ground transport charges.
Transport is cheap those days. Beside the fact that lot of things transported here from China are WAY cheaper than manufactured locally, years ago I used to work for still mill located close to San Francisco.
Corporation was doing lot of things for profit, like making us to come to work at 2 AM (!) but finally they bought plant in Seattle and energy cost savings alone covered cost of hauling the steel 900 miles.
