I suspect it’s more like others posted. The driver was unaware of how to drive them.
As a mechanic friend of mine puts it, ‘a mechanical issue, a loose nut at the wheel’..
While I'm definitely a stranger to RV's, the skinny pedal and I are close friends. I didn't rally the RV's I rented, but I definitely drove them like the proverbial rental. There were a couple long hills in that 32footer where I had the gas smashed into the floor just to maintain 45mph. That V10 was definitely singing, but I was never really worried. That said, I do remember those engines coming alive on flat out roads at higher rpm's though. I even remember thinking "this thing has more pep than I thought it would". It was really just the mountain passes where I was hoping for a little more oomph (especially with a trailer). I think I'll just go to the dealership and test drive some new V10 models.
