Class A motorhomes for towing

[tderonne]

Are you sure your enclosed trailer only weighs 7000 pounds? That's pretty light.

In gasser-land I'd be shopping for something that (in sort of budget order):

1. Has EFI and a four speed trans. Happened around '91. Remember the chassis can be older than the box.
2. Has a slide. Can't beat the room.
3. Has a '99 newer Ford Chassis, or '01 or newer W-series Workhorse. The '99 F53 was a real, designed for RVs, chassis. Wide track, 4 wheel disc brakes, beefy frame. Workhorse followed with similar stuff on the W series chassis when it came out in '01.

(On the towing / GCWR / hitch stuff, you'll find that the lighter (16K, 18K) GVWR Ford chassis had a 26K GCWR, leaving plenty of room for trailer weight. But you'll need a good hitch, and careful frame inspection.)

On the diesel side, don't fall for a small engined, 4 speed Allison unit with a small tow rating. Do your research...
