I traded in our 2005 Pleasure-way Plateau for a 2011 Great West Van Legend. The ride is much better. The engine is much quieter especially on acceleration. The cab is quieter.

Keep in mind many of the converters completely rebuild the cab seats with different padding and fabric or ultra-leather. I don't know if any use the MB seats in their stock condition. I could drive all day comfortably in both models.

I know the 2013 van we just bought sure runs and drives better than the 2008 chassis we had prior to it. The 2008 was a chassis/cab class c rv. That probably made some differences in itself though.
No big deal a about the DEF fluid addition, about 2 gallons every 4k miles. Available a lot of places.
