Ford v10 or gm 8.1 liter class A

I am shopping for a 10 year old gas class A motorhome in the 32 to 35
foot length.

Which is the better option, ford v10 or gm 8.1 ???

  • I've owned both V-10, and GM, Chevy 496 CI, 8.1 Vortec in coaches that I owned. I liked both engines. The RV I currently own is equipped with the Big Block Chevy 8.1 and I really like it! IMHO either engine would be a good choice.
  • Depends on what you find in attach that you light most. We pick the coach and the engine came along with it. Our is a 99 V10. No more issues with it and our neighbors V8.
