We took a tour on a narrow gauge steam railroad. I mentioned to our guide the I'd heard narrow was preferred to standard in mountains because curves can be tighter. He told me "There are three reasons to build narrow gauge: 1. it's cheaper, 2. it's cheaper, and 3. it's cheaper.
Back to the load averaging idea - Some of us have smaller coaches on E450 chassis while most smaller ones are E350. I think it's usually safe for Ford to assume that when an RV company orders chassis, the E450 part of the order is intended, by and large, to go under coaches where E350 would be inadequate. Another reason for Ford not to deliver any of them, particularly E450, equipped like E250.
