Heartland (Budget tier): Heartland's price-leader travel trailer - wood-framed with corrugated aluminum siding and only R-7 walls through 2022; the 2023 switch to Azdel on welded aluminum helped, but the line's water-intrusion and fit-and-finish complaints keep it in the budget tier.

FINDING ONE

Findable — a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Heartland is a volume manufacturer; only one model year; still in production. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ
