The difference is like comparing a Timex to the Rolex Submariner but the price isn't the problem it the availability. Thor is what, the fourth largest RV manufacturer? They can't build a few high end models and still be profitable?

Much of that in bold comes from the chassis manufacturer, not Thor.
And for what it’s worth, Ford, which makes most of the motorhome chassis we’re discussing, has already announced upgrades in many of those areas for 2021 E-Series and F-53 chassis, to start production in about 6 or 7 months.
I’ve already waited so long that I don’t want to buy a new motorhome until I see details on what’s coming in a few months. There’s a lot to look forward to from chassis OEM. I hope Thor and other RV manufacturers also make significant improvements in design and quality.
