“Is Oregon a high cost of doing business state? I know most RV manufacturing is concentrated here in Indiana, where there is a critical mass of component suppliers and plenty of surplus labor.”

I don’t know if Oregon is a high cob state or not. But, read an article about this and apparently a major factor in relocating had to do with delivery cost to distributors from Oregon. So, apparently, Monaco is shifting their manufacturing to regional plants to keep this cost competitive. Kinda makes sense to me.
