Hi Erby,

I'm the first to agree, the lines between manufactured and modular are becoming very blured, however your not going to see a home without a steel frame with a HUD acceptance plate, also many modulars are being built outside of HUD approval, but should in all respects meet local codes rather than Federal HUD codes.

BTW, I know of at least 1 manufacturer of steel chassied homes who builds 2 storey homes

Regards

Gerry
