AFAIK, Sunseekers have a fiberglass roof. I don't think it is crowned over the edges like the Winnebago, but unlike TPO or EPDM, you are not a puncture from a tree branch away from major water damage.
Next to the one piece Coach House models or a class "B", I would probably say the best roof would be one piece aluminum, crowned over the sides, similar to how Livin' Lite trailers are made.
I am in the market for a motorhome, but biding my time. So far, I do like the Winnebago Fuse. The advantage Fords have over Mercedes is that if something breaks, there is a Ford dealer almost anywhere. Mercedes dealers, especially the subset that handle Sprinters, and the subset of those that have the bays for class "C"s are relatively rare.
My only gripe about the Winnebago Fuse is that if I'm boondocking in the middle of July or August for more than 1-2 days, I either need to carry a hitch mounted cargo rack full of propane cylinders to use with an Extend-A-Stay device, or I haul my 3000 watt Yamaha generator on the rack and a few five gallon gas cans.
Of course, the Ford E-350/E-450 isnt bad either. It is tried and true, and very reliable. No DEF, no DPF, and very simple to maintain. Only real downside I've encountered is that the drive is more fatiguing over a long distance than a Sprinter or Transit.
