Yes, a total loss and doesn't anyone notice that there is not one vertical wall stud showing or even an end of one at the top of the fractured wall or at the bottom of the cab over area? In other words, the skin had to be the support for the cab over extension. Not a well built TC in my view.
Do your walls in your home not have wall studs either?
As others have said, there are studs but more importantly, studs are only one method of construction. If done properly sandwich wall construction can be both lighter and stronger than stud built walls. You don't see a lot of it in residential construction but in commercial buildings you are seeing more of it.
Of course, no one is designing an RV that will handle a bridge hit at speed.
