I just purchased (yesterday) the Garmin Dezl 760 for $229 with lifetime maps etc...from Factoryoutletststore.com
I decided to purchase the Dezl and not the RV because the Dezl version has a setting for Hazardous Material. I have a buddy who is a truck driver (and RV'er) and uses the Hazardous Material setting when driving his RV (think Propane). I have 60lbs propane and my 5'er is 13' 2" high and 43ft long.
His experience has been route avoidance for bridges and tunnels and has yet to be stopped or sent down a road where propane is prohibited, when selecting the hazardous material setting.
Also, I don't the the RV campsite database on the RV version. The Dezl has a simliar database to find campsite and rest stops for large rigs. I repeat...campgrounds, not only truck stops. Additionally, I can use the smartlink on the Dezl 760 to get the GoodSam Campsite App from my Android.
I couldn't see a reason why I'd buy the RV version, over the Dezl.
That said, ymmv and you pay your $$$ you take your choice. I chose the Dezl 760LMT.
