First question is do most small camper trailers for sale these days get built the same way as far as materials and workmanship?
No ! I strongly recommend you look into "eggshell" style (all fiberglass) travel trailers, like Scamp or Casita. Escape trailer are made in BC.

Depreciation is similar to cars if not worse when buying new, and the warranties are no better but I could be wrong.
Depreciation is very bad on new RVs ! Warranties are only as good as the servicing dealer. All appliances have their own warranties that may be as short as 90 days !
