Trailer construction quality question?

I find it interesting that you're asking people on an RV forum what they think of two manufacturers - my question back to you is what did YOU think of the two different manufacturers' products? You're the one that looked at both of them, how did YOU think they the two models compared in build quality? If you looked both over thoroughly, it should be fairly obvious the differences, even in used trailers. I myself have a different opinion than what you came back with as I happen to like Jaycos. Having said that, I know there are other units that are built better than Jayco, and my next trailer will probably be a different brand that I like the build quality better on (currently eyeing up the Lance line, even though we have a dealer nowhere near us!).

To me it's about what YOUR opinion is of the manufacturer and trailer you're looking at (because each is built different individually as well). And if you bought used, it gets even more interesting.
