David, I was thinking of the opposite — sorry I wasn’t clear.

Instead of making front wider, I was thinking of making rear narrower to match the front. I agree front is plenty wide already.

In other words, keep front end at 87 inches to minimize changing much like windshield, dash, front fascia, overhead bed, etc. Instead of making rear wider at 94 inches, just make it all 87 inches wide. Other than needing rear wheel well flairs, it could look better. Many Hymer Class A are that narrow, and the Winnebago Via/Reyo was only 90 inches wide.

Aerodynamic drag would likely improve (become lower overall).
