I've done more reading than posting on this forum.. I've gleaned a good bit of great advice from here, and it's helped my complete several repairs, most recently my son's bedroom floor. Please forgive me for just popping up out of the woodwork, and my slightly off-topic question.
I've observed a repeating theme with mobile homes, mine included: They're made as quickly and cheaply as possible. Then sometimes (mine for sure) they're set up shoddily by incompetents.
So I'm trying to determine - is there any company who makes a manufactured home that's made well? High quality. Where common sense, pride in making a quality product, etc are considerations, not just how cheaply it can be done?
I have a 1997 Clayton single wide that I have grown to absolutely hate. My wife and I bought it new and we loved it at the time, but the "lipstick was still on the pig", so to speak. Through the years, quality problems have shown through over and over, with increasing frequency. This thing's an unbelievable piece of junk, I'm afraid.
I'm don't mean to whine and kvetch. I'm exasperated and feel like this place is going to fall down around me. I know it's my own fault.
"I didn't know" - the song of many a sad sack, and I'm singin' along. I feel like such a chump. I need a hug.

So, if I were to consider getting rid of this MH and wanted to buy one that would last longer than its mortgage, are there any good bets?
