Wheel base to length is fairly critical for good driving characteristics. The ideal ratio is 55%. On a class C that is filled by the 176" wheel base on a 26 foot body. Mine felt as if I were driving a large car.
As the body gets longer the drive becomes worse and worse. Tail swing rises dramatically. When I moved to a 28'5" driving became worse, and I had 5 tail swing incidents. I had replaced the rear bumper so there was little damage to my unit.
The possibilities on the F 53 appear to be 138", 158", 168", 176", 178", 190", 208", 228", 242", 252"
What ever maker you go to make sure to be close to the 55%, as you said, this is your last kick at the can, and you have already had one unruly motorhome.
