these RV models are two years behind the times.
I have a garmin 3597LMTHD and very nice it is too. a 7" low res screen might be okay in an A class but being able to move this 5" high res GPS around gives it far more value (to me) than the $20-$30 premium cost over RV units. If I wanted all the campsites, goodsams & CWs (which I don't) I can install the POI files for them.
just the screen clarity and ease of use was enough, the rest is a bonus.
A car GPS has no routing for height restrictions and a height clearance POI will tell you much too late that you are about to hit the overpass you are approaching with no exit before it. The campgrounds, etc. are just frills on RV GPS units - the height, weight, propane, etc. profile is what is important on them so that they route your RV accordingly.
