I agree the industry needs a wake up call and I would certainly be willing to pay a little more for higher quality.
One thing I really think would help is if the manufactures would offer real differences in their various product lines. If there was a much larger gap in quality of build between the 20' bumper pull for the young family with very little money that was only going to use it on the weekend and the 40' full timers 5th wheel that would make some sense.
For sure it would be nice if the manufactures offered serious "Upgrade packages" such as disc brakes, IS, quality tires and cushioned pin boxes. Likewise packages for higher end finish and maybe even a quality build option where they spent extra time labeling wiring and plumbing and stringing it up properly. The dealers never tell you this sort of stuff. They just want to get the trailers out the door exactly like they come out of the factory. That really needs to change!
