Granted the Axis comes with more "standard" features that are "options" on Chateau (larger A/C, TVs, etc.), but it's hard to imagine that these differences add anywhere close to $20k.

Since essentially built on same chassis, and are of same size, it answers the question of how much it cost to build a Class A versus similar Class C. After options and discounts, I'd guess probably in range of $10k or so.


By the way, minor difference is that extra Chateau width makes bathroom layout a little more open. It's a subtle change I missed initially. The shower pan is not covered as much by sink, and toilet is square to wall, not angled like in Axis 24.1. The extra 5 inches of width does make a little difference.

Now if they'd eliminate the slide and reduce price another $5k.
Not only is it 5" wider its 11" longer.

You can see the width in the space between the rear beds; 5" extra there would make for a lot more room (and a huge king when the beds are made up as one).

Strangely enough they show the shower as 27x27 on both floorplans...I'd make that a little bigger if I had an extra 5"x11". It doesn't look like they made the bathroom any bigger, just the hallway is a little wider (note that the two bathroom doors are of unequal length in the Four Winds).
