Bunkhouse C+ with cabover bed or 4 bunks?

I have a family of six. We are on our second TT. Until now, they were the only thing in our price range with decent accommodations for our children.

Yesterday, I ran across the Dynamax Force 37BHHD and it has me very interested. It has a full size master suite plus two bunks AND a huge cabover bunk.

Two questions:
Does anyone know much about these new Dynamax C+ rigs? I read on here that the older ones were pretty good.

Does anyone know of another C+ with similar or better accommodations that still offers the big 9 litre "truck" engine and big towing power? (we plan to use our Ford Excursion as Toad for a trip to AK)

Thanks in advance for your advice and insights.
Class C

    Yes, they have the 6.7L Cummins. I am trying desperately to find a similar floorplan with the 9.0L Cummins.

    Test rode in Dynamax DX-3 and looked at the Force today. Loved the DX-3, so I am going to drill down on the Force with the HD package that has the 9.0L engine. It won't be quite as nice as the DX-3, but I need the cabover bunk for my daughters more than I need the other amenities.

    They're both on the same chassis with the same engine and transmission as far as I can tell.

    Dynamax is probably the better manufacturer, but the Jayco is significantly cheaper.

    I missed that one completely. Unfortunately, I don't think they offer the power option I prefer. I'm still investigating. Thank you for the recommendation.

    Jayco Seneca 37FS (been eyeing this one myself, not to buy now, but as something to aim for in 5 years or so on the used market when we're ready to upgrade)
