They are tired of having to fix them and be the bearer of bad news that parts are on back order.

Most RVs have always been built in the same general area. A lot of houses are poorly built no matter what you pay the person building. As far as what I’ve seen, no state has a lock on good quality either. You can buy bad stuff built everywhere.

Imagine paying someone $7.25 an hour to build something. Most RV's are made in Indiana. You get what you pay for.
