Even with the Certified chassi we always reinforce the frames fishplating the extensions as well as supporting the hitches . As far as the V-10 we've had very good luck with them , you may want to add a Banks kit along with there trans module. Keep in mind typically a class C has smaller water and holding tanks and somewhat limited lp and fuel tanks but what it is is what it is .Sure beats the back of a pickup truck . If I can be of any help feel free to give me a call .

Marc,
I have a 35' class A with the V 10 but I was told the weak part was not the engine but the trans. I had two different Ford dealers tell me that the trans is the weak part when towing. How strong is the trans and will it hold up towing an enclosed trailer with a car in it?
