Introduction

In these parts...fracking has made getting a good deal on a used RV very difficult. 

Actually around here most of the dealers have several used ones keeping in mind that I don't live close to the dealers from the nearest about 70 miles in s.c. to the next one toward Atlanta ga I live on the boarder, That's why I was wondering about quality no longer than the pods have been around theirs a lot of used ones to be found maybe the folks just went bigger, Im not really looking for an entry level camper Im looking for a small one because there are only two of us and I cant see buying a $45,000 truck to pull a $30,000 but seems all the campers that are made small are made to last only until you can afford a big one For me quality is #1 floor plan #2 and the campers wait #3 or closer to #2.5

Welcome.  One thing that has apparently changed with the newest model year(s) is a switch from solid wood cabinets.  I haven't seen this in-person.  However, even then I think most are built fairly well, with maybe less time spent on quality control than they used to.

built as well as any other mass produced low price point trailer.  most people don't go in expecting perfection, and most of us have all been happy with our purchases.
