So, what's the verdict on the Godzilla motor in Class A RV's....Looking at a Fleetwood Bounder with the 7.3L and the coach has an 8K tow/hitch rating from the factory which is higher than any others in this same class of RVs. I would be towing a 20' - 22' enclosed with a sand rail etc.
Not looking to tow and climb grades at 80 mph but don't want to struggle at 30 mph just the same.

Thank you for any input you can provide.
Cheers
 
I think it has been a solid motor for the RVs and the reviews that I have read seem to be all good. It does not rev to the moon like the V10 to make power.
 
Cam/lifter issues were a thing with the 7.3. Ford announced they are discontinuing the F53 gasser chassis. Cummins has rolled out their 6.7 Octane turbo gasser, and I wouldn't be surprised if Freightliner offers a gasser RV chassis with it.
