I can only relate to my own experience & research. The Ford V-10 is widely used because of it's dependability even with high mileage. On a Ford chassis built from 2005 on, the front end was reworked with much better suspension components resulting in better handling. It is the reason I went with the Ford vs the Chevy. That and the weight ratios for a given coach gave a little more wiggle room for towing and cc weight. The main drawback (for me) is the doghouse intrudes more into the cabin seating than does the Chevy. On the drivers side it is not too bad but you may find the passenger side a bit tight in legroom depending, of course, on you or your traveling companions height, weight, etc, etc.
Mechanically, I think Ford, after 2005, is the better choice. Of course this is my opinion only. I encourage you to drive both and sit in the passenger seat in both models for comparison. Good luck in your hunt!
Take Care,
