We went through a similar process in October 2019. We went with the Accolade 37TS for the following reasons.
Magnitude/Omni
could not use the bed with the slide in.
low OCCC
don't need nor want a 4X4 RV.
limited dealers able to work on a Ford based motorhome chassis due to bay requirements
Accolade/Seneca
better warranty at the time
Freightliner chassis can be serviced at any Freightliner dealer
5K OCCC
12K towing capacity
Air brakes
rear air suspension
triple slides creates large living area
bed is usable with slide in
Isata 5
Rear axle was at max weight with the rig empty - looked no further
Nexus
DW needed a step ladder to get into the driver's compartment. No lower steps on the exterior of the cab - looked no further
Renegade
Didn't see the value for the price other than the power train.
We put 7000 miles on the Accolade in the first year and are looking at putting about 10K on it this year. We are very happy with our decision.
