If you had a do-over, which would you get?

Not necessarily...

There are too many ways to modify {and hopefully improve} the ride and handling of a Class C to make a blanket statement that the Chevy has a better ride and handling. More room {a couple of inches} I will give you {but unless you are over 6' tall or the first number when you get on the scale is larger than one you really gain nothing} but it comes at a cost. The standard Chevy mechanically {limited} adjusted seat is a torture rack on a good day.

The Ford, electrically powered driver's seat found on many/most of the Ford Class C chassis' is infinitely adjustable making long days behind the wheel a piece of cake. Performance between the two is more alike than different with the Ford V-10 bringing more torque to the equation which is what gets you up and down the mountain. If towing or loading heavy get the V-10.

Mileage is such a subjective thing given all of the variables claiming an across the board improvement of 1 mpg... seriously? :h

Not sure about the allegedly larger fuel tank but with 55 gallons on my Ford I don't see much benefit in 2 more gallons. I always try and drive on the top half of the tank and never let it get below one-quarter of a tank to ensure I will always be able to run my generator.

Most of us love what we have or we would not have it, such is life. Want a fun on the road game? Try counting Chevy chassis' vs Fords {and don't forget all of the Paramedic ambulances, rental car shuttles, commercial trucks on a cutaway chassis' etc. } Give bonus points for spotting a Chevy {it only seems fair}.
LMAO!

BTW regarding size of Ford's E350/E450 "55 gallon" fuel tank: We just got back from an RV trip and once again I proved that Ford's 55 gallon fuel tank capacity can be a myth if one doesn't fill it just right.

We fueled up once after leaving the lake to come home. It was at a major brand gas station (Shell) ... which probably had it's pumps "set up correctly" IAW with Federal and California requirements.

After the pump automatically stopped, I pulled the pump handle trigger very slightly and held it that way so as to get an additional 5 gallons into the tank. Getting those final 5 gallons into the tank probably took an extra 5 minutes, though, because of the slow rate of flow.

I then probably had an actual 55 gallons on board. I'm suspecting that the EVAP system has something to do with this and that maybe the Chevy chassis would with it's EVAP system might act the same way.

For what it's worth, I experience the same situation with my pickup and daily driver sedan - they both can hold more gallons of fuel if I trickle the last few gallons into their tanks slowly - by defeating the automatic shutoff mechanism at the pump.

I detest fueling up enough such that I like the driving distance between fill ups to be a long as possible - especially when traveling with the RV.
