It is misinformation. It's unfortunate because it kind of hearkens back to the portable classroom in a schoolyard or these kinds of tin-can trailer-park homes. The reality is that I would prefer to live in a manufactured home. They are the preferred choice in Sweden because they're of higher quality. I'm in a 120-year-old house that leaks a lot, and I have little breezes in virtually every corner, especially on cold days.
The building envelope, the R-value and the energy efficiency for a passive light house we build is a superior product in every regard. This is the preferred solution for most people. Quite frankly, that is one of the stigmas we need to move beyond as quickly as we can. We need to establish the high quality of these units.
