yeah, I don't think I agree with that
well, yes, partially true
but
for the bigger class c coaches they put the e-450 chassis very close to their limits with just an average load
My 31L for example
with no trailer at all, if I were to fill up the water and waste tanks (which are too small) along with my normal load of gasoline, groceries, family, and stuff my rear axle has met it's limit... and that's before any trailer at all is added.... even a little jet ski or similar would be tough to balance into the load.
The similar floor plan on the F-550 chassis offers larger waste tanks along with the ability to load it up normally and still be able to handle a tow of some sort....
I would have gone that way for sure, had i had the budget
