It seems they are changing some things for next year and it will be heavier (300 lbs more than the one we got). http://www.pacificcoachworks.com/products/econ-e18rbs/ This dealer had the best deal http://www.marjonrvs.com/new_vehicle_detail.asp?mfrcode=8179&catcode=81&modelyear=2016&veh=480432&brands=y&dropdown=n&MainManufacturer=6203&DispType=12575Re: Looking at used Ford F-350 high milesThere is a reason that era Ford is more "affordable". It becomes a moneypit. It doesn't matter how many miles. Mine was a late built one and after it ate a turbo at 80,000 miles I decided to dump it. The biggest problem is when the water gets into the oil = instant death. Our neighbors was killing him an injector at a time he dumped it and got a 2016 one to tow his 5th wheel. There is (was?) a place in AZ that bullet proofed them but at $8-10,000 for the job you're better off buying a new one.
