Re: [a/s] 1970s Airstreams



What I wonder is if they have "Monday morning" models and "Friday afternoon"  
models.  Remember the book "Wheels"...

In it the auto assembly plant workers were accused of making lousy cars on 
Friday afternoons & Monday mornings... it got so people were asking what day 
their new car was made before they would buy. The most desirable days being 
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

I imagine a lot of it has to do with the work ethic of the person who is 
actually working on a particular area.  For example the people who did the 
finish work in Sandy's '99 obviously didn't give a damn how it turned out, it 
was all just slapped in...  

Apparently different people put Verna's together.

It seems like a quality control problem.... If I were in charge of quality 
control I would not have "passed" Sandy's trailer (I have seen it in person) 
and I would have fired whoever haphazardly put it together.

I likeb buying a three year old trailer, the person who bought it new had the 
new trailer hassles... if there were any (c:
