Who's owned an Isata 5 based on the Ram 5500 chassis?
I'm interested in the Isata 5 but can't find any unbiased information on it. A search of the class Class C forum returns only one incidental mention of it. Anyone have insight they can share?

I like the MDT, but I want a 4x4. Otherwise, it sounds like the Ford and Ram have too many downsides.
Any specific reason you want 4x4?
Generally, these things are too long and low to venture off a gravel road. Motorhomes have good traction anyways because most of the weight is on the drivers. And for snow-driving, you'll still need chains even with 4x4, because nearly all states have chain laws that are more strict once you are over 10,000 pounds.
And.... hydraulic AWD is available as a conversion on all true MDTs with air brakes.

I spend a good deal of time camping on the beach on Mustang Island and North Padre Island on the Texas coast. Sometimes that sand can get deep.
