This model is based on an E-450 chassis which made good sense when looking at the weight of it and size. We liked the floor plan and for just the two of us it was quite livable. The overall quality is very good except for a few issues. When we purchased this unit in April 2019 and while we took a short test drive and didn't discover that handling wasn't good. After buying we found it wandered a lot going down the highway and had to be constantly corrected. The most irritating aspect was that when a steering correction was put in, it started to turn but then wanted to keep turning so 3-4 hours driving was exhausting. After considerable research I applied the best solutions I could find, and found my problems were common to a lot of E-450 Class-C owners. First upgrade was HEAVY Duty anti-sway bars, front and rear, and a Heavy Duty steering stabilizer. While those helped a lot they didn't cure the tracking problem. The unit still required constant steering input to go straight, so the next fix found was having the Caster changed with bushings and alignment to put as much in as possible. With all those changes I was able to do an 8 hour day's driving and not feel exhausted. The dealer who sold me the unit forgot to tell me more than a few things about the unit, and I failed to look for them, so $$$s later... We blew a tire after driving the unit only 400 miles, so - 6 new tires while on a trip. Completed this trip without any more problems. The next trip was from San Antonio to Columbus Ohio for the Pumpkin Festival. The RV only made it to Birmingham Alabama where it blew the main bearings on the engine at 26,800 miles!? Everyone we talked to stated "That doesn't happen" but it did to us. So leaving the RV at a Ford dealership while they installed the new engine, we disconnected our 2018 MKX, took all of our things needed for the trip to Ohio in it, and finished that part of the trip. The cause of death for the engine was an incorrect oil filter that not only was the wrong kind but was badly undersized. We picked up the RV on the way back from Ohio and drove it home. Fuel mileage was better right off the bat. Towing the MKX with this unit has been a breeze. For the most part I don't even know it's there. The 3 camera system that I installed allows me to see the TOAD and totally eliminates blind spots on both sides. The star reduction for livability is due to the gawd awful noise the A/C makes when it's running. You can't hear the TV even with amplified speakers, so we switched to Bluetooth earphones with noise canceling.

Ltd storage for cross country trips. The good: it drives fine and it's comfortable inside.
