All of the current Class A gassers are on Ford chassis with a Ford V-10 engine so they're all going to be the same in that regard...
I disagree with the assertion they’re all the same. Ford makes various capacity chassis and one maker will use a 24,000 pound chassis for a given length and another will use a 22,000 pound or even 20,500 chassis. And wheelbase varies among builders and I go with the notion the longer the better. A 34 foot Bounder has a 22,000 chassis and a 208 inch wheelbase, a 34 foot Tiffin a 24,000 chassis and a 228 inch wheelbase. Significant differences that will manifest themselves in payload, handling and stability.

I hear it constantly, how there's no difference between two models, other than the price.
It gets really complicated with DP's, with so much more to consider.
The main thing is, that it has a huge TV, with a fireplace under it...:R
