If they really have improved welding in recent years, I hate to think what Lippert's welding was like before that.

The vast majority of issues with Lippert frames are not still occurring. The reports have become very few and infrequent. True, 95% or so of frames are Lippert and yet well over 95% of TT's on the road have no problems.

I have seen several frame issues reported on these forums from top TT manufactures such as Northwood and others who are not using Lippert frames.
