More samples,
I had to repair all the fasteners holding the skirting to the frame. Some of them fell out, some were twisted off, others pulled through the skirting because they didn't use washers.
When I replaced the marker lamps, I found several them where they used the holes in the lamp base but stripped it out in the aluminum. Their solution? Drive the screw through another spot in the lamp base. Not sure these guys should be allowed power tools.
It is not isolated to RV's, I see the same thing everywhere. They are out there, but It to difficult to find people who care about their work. I try to do as much as i can myself.

Every camper I've owned had the fender screws changed. Always with stainless steel bolts, washers, and nylon nuts. Having gone over staples and nails. like you I mentioned some should never touch a nail gun. They probably are not safe with a hammer either. Piece work ~ hurry and go home no need to care about how the job is done. No such thing as pride in the work at any builder these days. Calling it "Amish Craftsmanship" would be an embarrassment to the Amish in many cases.
