The Thor ACE series is advertised @99 inches, it is advertised also as an A/C Hybrid.

The Winnie Via / Itasca Reyo (Mecedes turbo Diesel F50 chassis) and Thor Vegas and Axis (Ford V10 gas E Series w/ IFS- not the F53) are both about 7 and half feet wide with slides retracted.

Some similar floor plans, but with very different chassis, the price point spread is obvious.

Best luck

Thanks for the replies, however none of those suggested are like the one I saw but can't remember manufacturer's name.

How about an Allegro Breeze? I believe it is 7'6" wide. Check the Tiffin Motorhomes website for specs.

2010 Gulstream Montaj was 94" wide. But 94" isn't all that narrow, just narrower than today's 8.5" "wide-body" norm. Maybe it just looked narrow?



Gulfstream Montaj

The Tiffin Allegro Breeze has an overall width of 95". That's about the narrowest I'm aware of.

Front engine generally means gas engine. Take a look through a few manufacturer sites to see if you see a comparable coach.

I identified the "narrow" class A I asked about: it's a Damon Avanti. Has diesel engine in front; apparently 2012 was last model.
Anyone with experience and/or opinion about them?

Thanks for the help.
