We all know some people who can turn a new car into a pile of c rap in way less time than a vehicle should actually last.

Yes build quality helps or hurts the mission to keep up a camper both physically and aesthetically, but owners with a lack of motivation, skill, or even the simple inability to recognize issues early on and correct small things before they become big things are the largest contributors to the “junk RV” feelings.
Not that there aren’t some or many poorly constructed RVs, but the above reasons serve to exaggerate the issue.
