Unfortunately, the RV industry is not large enough to attract the attention of off shore competition.
One reason is that no one else in the world to my knowledge RVs like the United States does. The UK has the caravans, mostly small casita sized campers that can be pulled with a 4 cylinder and more importantly, fit on their roads. Australia has their outback style trailers but are on no where near the same production numbers as we are. There have been some made in china units imported but they didn't last long.

When they do (and they will because they are masters at reverse engineering). look out domestic builders. Of course components already come from China, like WFCO converters and most all the Suburban components on their fridges (Suburban imports the entire cooling assembly from China and has for a few years now), so they are there but in the components sense, not the entire unit. Jensen sound and entertainment centers are entirely Chinese, so is Furrion
