I would think that the industry-wide trend to make motorhomes taller and taller with higher center of gravity isn't helping much as far as roll overs go.

I find it interesting that many classic motorhome designs (GMC, Cortez, Revcon, Vixen, Aero Cruiser, etc...) were built fairly low on custom-designed chassis optimized for RV use.

Newer motorhomes over 12-feet tall worry me. I like the Axis/Vegas for being lower to ground, although I would prefer a motorhome that was lower still.
