Our destination today is La Grande, OR (about an hour north of Baker City) where there are two RV manufacturers, Northwoods and Outdoors RV. In our ongoing search for something better, these two brands are well known for quality. Both offer factory tours and we're going to take them up on it. The plan is to attend the Northwoods tour on Wednesday at 11 am, spend the night at Walmart, then do the Outdoors RV tour on Thursday before heading toward our next destination.
Only Northwoods allowed pictures, but both manufacturing processes are remarkably similar. One reason for that is the founder of Outdoors was also one of the founders of Northwoods. One of Northwoods product lines bares his name, Nash.
