I have a 2018 1172 and pretty much agree with sd209 regarding the reclining sofa, though the storage underneath it is nice. It is also handy to have for people to sit on when they stop by. I like the 1172 for the most part and I did look at eagle cap and host campers too.
The generator, while loud, is drowned out with the AC and fan running (also loud but effective). The generator is a little bit of a propane pig too. I do have a Honda EU2000 but do not use it on the truck's front rack, just another thing to manage and duplicates the Onan's functionality. I would rather use the front rack for a mini-bike or extra storage for something else.

I have a 2015 F350 DRW with 14k lbs. gvwr and also added the air bags and stable loads (bought). The truck with the camper is probably over 14k lbs but keep in mind that the f350 generally has a higher load capacity than the f450. Regarding TPMS I could take or leave since a blowout can occur with the tires having the correct pressure and guess you would notice it if one blew.
