My current Pacific Coachworks TT was made by the original owners. The company has since been sold once or twice and it's my understanding that the quality is not what it was originally.
I think that this is also a sad fact in this industry as in others. There are those that swear every time Fleetwood bought out another brand when they were acquiring companies back is the early 2000's the quality went right down the toilet. That was for those that they didn't put ought of business completely like Eagle Cap truck campers.
So it's not just the brand name that can make a difference, but who is running that particular brand when your unit is produced.
On another note I have never seen any other RV that was as well constructed as my '05 Lance 981 truck camper. I love the space in the TT and the quality is pretty good, but it's not close to how that Lance was made. They stood behind this products then also with a full 2 year warranty. I think they dropped that when the RV industry went south in '07. That's when they went back into the TT business too.
