That is a profound statement for sure !! What would give you the idea that if that company failed, they all would. Many manufactures have gone by the wayside under current economic conditions, but many others have remained.
I suspect the RV lifestyle is here to stay and there will be companies that come and go thru rough times and good times like always.

As the largest RV manufacture in the world, THOR going down would take with it a lot of parts and distributers for RVs. If that event happened after the blows already, it would certainly cripple the RV industry to a point we would not want to imagine.

Okay....

What is the correct (if there is one) pronunciation for Prevost?
Pre-Vo as in Larry Curly and Mo 
Pre-vost as in most
