That's weird, compared to an equivalent Jayco. One company, two brands.
Depending on the model, it either gets built for Starcraft at one of several Jayco plants, or it gets built for Jayco at the Starcraft plant, with differences in trim, equipment, and of course branding.
Autumn Ridge line is bigger than what Starcraft builds, so it is a Jayco product. Do the Jayco employees intentionally do shoddy work on the frames of trailers that will be Starcraft branded? How would they know, at the frame plant, which is a separate operation, which brand is it going to eventually be.
But could this brand rivalry be the explanation for the rough finish on a Jayco popup I looked at in early 2014 at the factory showroom, considering that the Starcraft plant was building that model for Jayco?
As a conspiracy theory, could it make national news?
