We have a 2014 27' Itasca. It has everything on your list except the diesel and the electric step, in fact it does not have an outdoors step. We've had a mh with a pull out step and also one with an electric step, this Itasca has 2 steps inside with the house battery under one. Makes it easy to get to.
That electric step is just one more motor , wiring and sensor to malfunction.
It might not be so bad but the parts used are garbage and the weather and road dirt do not help. It seems like the manufacturers bid out to find who makes the least expensive 12v motor and thats what they use. Rvs are built to get you thru the warranty period then you’re on your own. My advice to anyone looking to buy an rv is to learn how to repair an rv. Try to keep it simple.
