The veteran owners wise up and hopefully become more selective and more knowledgeable. Truthfully some do and some are just as dumbfounded on the 2nd purchase as they were on the 1st ....LOL.
Some fail to understand that quality control does not exist and that they build things well enough to just get the RV out the door.
Eventually the buyers are shocked when they realize their 30K, 40K 50K,-100K RV was not assembled very well. They then want to proclaim to the world that RV's are junk. Experience successful RV owners have already figured out the game and managed to keep there rigs going by filling in the gaps that the industry leaves for us.

A steady stream of newbies ultimately keeps the industry going.
Eventually the newbies become seasoned, but the learning curve can be long, slow, and steep. It seems to take owning at least 2 RV to figure out the real shadiness and dark secrets of the RV industry.
