My understanding is that during last year There were some problems with the F350 Stripped Chassis.
A few of the other RV manufacturers had enough E350 chassis on hand to keep producing till the problem was solved. For a time, Thor had to switch to E450s to keep producing and are perhaps returning to E350s now. We stayed in touch with the Thor plant to be able to “pull the trigger” on our recent new purchase to get a E450 chassis on the first batch of the 2017 Axis 25.2 models. (Ours does have a 2016 VIN E450 chassis on a 2017 VIN 25.2 Coach.)
So there will be some new 2016s and some new 2017s with E450s and some with E350s. However, I’m led to believe they are going back to E350s on the 2017 models. Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
James
