Having had 3 motorhomes with a side radiator, I definitely agree that is a good feature. However I have found that motorhomes with side radiators are costing more and more. To the best of my knowledge, Winnebago does not make a motorhome with a side radiator in spite of the fact that their top of the line Tour is close to $400,000. I don't you will see any motorhome less than $200,000 with a side radiator.
Regarding the engine, I believe that in 2015, the ISC engine is rated at 380hp, and the 6.7 liter Cummins is now rated at 360hp with 800ft-lb of torque. We have the 340hp engine in our 34' Newmar Ventana LE (with a rear radiator:() and I am very pleased with it. Our previous motorhome had a 400 hp CAT engine with 1150 ft-lb of torque, and I find the Newmar is just as nice to drive, even in hilly country, as the previous motorhome was.
