John,
You found the same thing as I did. I'm 6'1" and 240# with size 13 also. The only way I could get around in the Ford was to open the drivers door, step out and then turn around and enter front first so ?I could put my feet up high enough to get them over the seat then step on into the back. With our MB I just turn and step back and I'm in the into the coach. Also the seats slide all the way back which I found in most Fords you could only slide the seat back all the way when the slides were out (maybe it was only the units that I looked at the I would have to do this).
Also the visibility out of the front of the MB is great. You are looking almost right at the ground in front of you. The Ford had a longish hood t look over. Also in the same foot print area you get more coach than the have again because of the long hood adds length but none to the coach just the overall length.
This is IMO
I said I would report back after I tow my Subaru and it is getting closer as I got the car earlier than expected so the parts are on order to get the base plate installed plus the aux brake. I have already received my tow bar. I bought a Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain. Getting closer.
