The RV market went bust along with the economy in 2008 so new ventures were not well received. GM stopped making the Vortec 8.1 L V8, it really was antiquated and not suitable to modern emissions requirements and Navistar acquired WorkHorse and did not have a suitable diesel engine to swap in. There was no other available gas engine, certainly not a Ford as they were building their own chassis. Thus what seemed like an excellent idea vanished.
