Gas Class A Recommendations Please

Good luck... I think the only Class A chassis being made right now (could change) is a Ford F53 and many folks have had need to make improvements. There is an active Ford Chassis owners section on the iRv2 website that migh help point out what others have run into and how they addressed it.
I’d check with Newmar to see if they have an all electric option for their Gasser models, perhaps in their Canyon Star model line.

When you say might change, what are you referring to? The Ford chassis issues is what I had heard about and why I made the comment.
Thank You for taking the time to reply.

I know you said no Thor but we love our Miramar 35.3. It's a little longer than what you want (36'11") but we love the layout. It does have propane but there are only two things that use propane on the RV (propane/electric hot water and the furnace). I have no complaints about the way it drives. Trucks and other large vehicles don't have much affect on us when passing. This is my first Class A so I don't have anything else to compare it to but I have yet to have a "white knuckle" moment driving it. Has a king bed and tows our Jeep Wrangler great. The hitch is rated for 8000lbs.

35' range, must handle well without extensive chassis mods,no tile unless it's heated, king bed, no propane, 4,000 lb. towing capacity, in the 2014 to new age.

Good luck finding something WITHOUT propane !

Newmar Bat Star series has a few models in the 34'11" range. We own one make sure you get a Chassis upgrade to the 24,000 lb Chasis. I spent 17,000 on suspension improvements. Get one on a 2016 chassis or newer to get the 6 speed transmission. Tiffin also has a few selections in that 35' range. either coach is a very good build.

Bounders are great MHs, but the ride on these gassers will wear you out in comparison to DPs.

I would look at the gas units form Newmar and Tiffin.

$17,000.00 on suspension improvements :E I would run from that.

Have heard that other chassis’s may enter the market. No specifics.

Are you really determined to have a gas motorhome, or just a desire to have one in the 35' range. I ask this, because Tiffin and Newmar both have nice diesel motorhomes in the 34-35' range. This will give you the better ride, higher load capacity etc. while still giving you the shorter length. We went from a 41' diesel to our current 34' Newmar Ventana LE and are very happy with it. Newmar also now offers a very upscale class diesel, the New Aire if you want to spend more money.
