Default Re: Motorhome selection.

I have a 25’ Class C E-450 V10
Tow a 26’ enclosed with dragster and lots of spare parts
Have used it since 2014 with no problems

I re-enforced the hitch and rear frame. Added air bags, good shocks and steering stabilizer up front. Have a real good hitch with sway control.

It’s certainly not the best rig possible but has worked fine

I don’t have a lot of room at home for anything bigger and used my Duramax pickup with a Lance camper for over 10 years.

My little motorhome is way more comfortable

If I had it to do over I’d have bought the next larger length MH. About 2 feet longer overall length and wheelbase. The longer wheelbase would handle better I believe.

Gas mileage is around 7-8 at best with or without towing. 4:56 gears and 25-2600rpm+ at 65/70+
5 speed AOD trans.
