RE: On the road observations

The RV Industry is going to ride the golden goose as long as they can and the propaganda arm the RVIA with the rag they promote, RV business, in conjunction with the GoRVing campaign, are going to sugar coat it as long as possible. The sheet is hitting the fan and the crash is coming folks. I was through Goshen and Elkhart two weeks ago. The storage lots and fields out there are packed more than I've ever seen. RV shortage my rear end. What they're going to have is a buyer shortage and that will be a good thing.
Winnebago says they have over $4 billion in order backlogs. Thor said a while back they had over $18 billion in order backlogs. Perhaps those full lots you're seeing have vehicles that are waiting for missing items or waiting for drivers to deliver or ??

RE: Stainless wheel liners.

I have a 2014 Itasca 31K with the same hub cap style pry off stainless wheel liners. I would think that unless a previous owner had changed the wheel liners, you would also have the pry off liners.

RE: Class C - with ability to tow

Class C would be marginal for towing your car. Super C or Class A.
Forget the bank account !
Please define "marginal". The E450 can tow a 5000 lb Jeep with a significant margin in GCWR. GVWR is not a factor when flat towing since there is virtually no tongue weight.
For years Ford has had a 14,500# GVWR and a 22,000 GCWR for the E 450. That gives a tow rating of 7,500 #. They also have 22,000, 24,000 and 26,000 GVWRs and 26,000, 30,000 and 30,000# GCWRs for their F53 chassis. That gives tow ratings of 4,000, 6,000 and 4,000#, for what has been the most used chassis for gas class A motorhomes for many years. Many people still say a class A can tow more that a class C ?

RE: Class C - with ability to tow

Why limit yourself to a Class C? X-2, Class A will likely have a lot more room.
What is X-2 ?
The X-2 means that bukhrn agrees with jdc1's statement.
