One problem with pretty much all the class As are that they are RVs. RVs are built only in prototype quantities, not enough to build tooling, test things, etc. This shows up very glaringly in the cab, which is a cobbled together, rattly affair of dime store gages in even the most expensive units. A good successful run is what, 200 units? Ford or Chevy builds at least 5 times that many just to test. Dashboards, doors, controls, etc are all fully tooled parts. They go on to build many millions of each, Class As are basically built in a garage out of spare parts and stuff from Home Depot.
BS! Chassis are delivered to the body builders. The chassis contains the gauges, controls, etc. The Ford F53 I own has a Ford dash, etc. Not the finest on the market maybe, but didn't come from Home Depot.
My refrigerator, toilet, stove, fans, air conditioners are all identical between my Hurricane and my Lance. My Expedition has upgraded refrigerator, toilet, etc.
Go sit in your TC while it is being driven down the rough highway and listen to all the sounds.
