The American class C market is dominated by the Econoline E450 with V10 6.8L gas engine and 14,050 GVWR. Some manufactures will use a E-350 full size van or cab and chassis with the 6.8L V10 or the smaller 5.4L V8. The V10 comes with a 5 speed automatic transmission, while the smaller engine comes with a 4 speed, both have overdrive.
Lately there have been some motorhomes based on the Sprinter chassis, but that transmission that has to be replaced at 100,000 miles is what is stopping my work from buying more sprinter vans. After replacing every Sprinter transmission that has over 120,000 miles on them, the boss said enough is enough.
These pictures look great! The quality looks great as well, and these look roomy, and comfortable.
