Changes nothing. Still worst by design.

1). The need to carry a maximum payload
2). And for that to fit a squared cube.

The secondary penalties of a motorhome: bad handling & braking with an extra-high COG

The space utilization and weight penalties can’t be overcome.

A Moho not only has NO advantage, it is nothing but DIS advantage the whole way down the list.

On the same chassis, at least the Moho has a bit of aero quality. A box truck, zero.
