Gulf Stream Endura - International or Chevy
I've been shopping for an rv to tow my 7000 lb boat. I received a lot of good info from those who tow with a E450\ V10 but I'm still concerned about being at max payload,especially in the mountains....

It's comfortable to sit in a Kodiak. Lots of room for your feet and no heat. I have driven in 10 degrees and 100 degree weather in comfort.
Ron, DW will tell you that we have NO problem with room or heat for her We even check it with our infrared thermometer and while the right side is a little warmer than the left if has been no problem.
Our only concern has been the toad and we recently solved that issue by swapping the Escape for a Cherokee Limited. Mind you, I would like more torque and an exhaust brake. Those are the two things I miss from our C7 and ISC powered DPs.
As to noise, we don't find the E450 it any louder than the 8.1 Vortec. Fortunately, the E450 it doesn't have as much drive line whine as we had with the Kodiak gasser.
