new Ford E450 Class c

[F450]

Has anyone got a new class c ford e450 with the new 7.3 engine? If you have one, what do you think about the performance?

It's in the "2021 What's New" Publication, after all the Transit stuff.

Note: This is a large PDF, so I don't recommend clicking if you're on mobile: 2021 What's New

Lot's of good stuff for the Transit in there. I suspect we'll be seeing a lot more motorhomes moving to that over the Sprinter.

All I've seen, also on tube yube, is that the dash (gauge area only) is different, with a different steering column and steering wheel -- similar (maybe the same) as the current F series truck lines.

I've also seen 2021 Class C's on our local RV lot with the V10 chassis still used...most likely 2019 or '20 chassis the manufacturer stocks up on.

Ford skipped the 2020 model year, so it would be a 2019 chassis.

Ford is changing the doghouse for 2022, which starts production in January. No pictures that I've seen, but they promise better egress into the house from both the driver and passenger seats.

I've also seen 2021 Class C's on our local RV lot with the V10 chassis still used...most likely 2019 or '20 chassis the manufacturer stocks up on. For example, our '19 Jayco C is actually built on an '18 E-450 chassis.

Our local dealer is supposed to have some 7.3 Godzilla's later this fall...so I'm planning on checking them out. (wife not happy about that!)

However, I'll say I still love my 6.8L V10. What a beast.

The only thing I have seen is apparently some of the new Entegra ones are coming out. You tube and it doesnt metion driving or show the new doghouse.
