I've seen it all now.
RV Travel has posted an article and video on a "COVID Camper" that has parts and systems held together with... get this, zip ties!
I am so glad I bought my Winnebago when I did (back in 2015) as I have had no issues with it.
The article begins with:
Depending on how recently you have shopped for a new RV, you may or may not be shocked at the video below from RV Tips & Travels, one of our readers’ favorite RV YouTube channels. In it, they expose some of the astoundingly poor workmanship in the RV industry that has sadly become all too common.
RV build quality has been a major concern for a long time, but it got worse due to the work shortage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of this shortage, RV manufacturers were forced to hire inexperienced builders. The term “COVID camper” was born from the lack of build quality during this time. But as you’ll see in this video, it’s NOT getting any better.
I have long had the belief that buying a good-quality used RV is far better than many of the new RVs currently on the market. For me, this video only reinforced that opinion.
Even more shocking than the garbage workmanship in the RV industry is the fact that they don’t even seem all that concerned about hiding it. It was on public display at the Florida RV SuperShow, where this video was filmed.
