I really would not put Cardinal and Vilano in the same group as the others listed. It also depends on how old you want to consider. Going back a few years and some really great 5ers, look at Hitchhiker Champagne, Excel, Teton, King of the Road, Carriage, and Newmar 5ers.
We have had both class A and 5ers and for full time living, the 5er will serve you better, especially if you spend weeks in one area. A really big advantage to the 5er is if you have powertrain issues, you still have a place to live while the truck is in the shop. With a motorhome, the house goes in the shop as well. Also, with a typical Ford, Ram, or Chevy, you can get them services pretty much anywhere and the cost of service is much less than a diesel pusher class A.

Ken,
All of those names I listed were off the top of my head, without knowing the budget of the OP, we will not truly know ,,, Our definition of High Ends does not fit all, hence tossing in other names into the hat..
