While I do not own either, as your research probably has already shown, seems they are both built upon the same larger Ford f53 chassis and use the Triton V-10 engine. So that part of the quality evaluation is probably a wash. You will find, and probably have found through your research there are many perspectives on the Ford F53 chassis. My coach is built upon the smaller F53 chassis and my prior purchase research told me to expect less than stellar handling performance from the small F53 chassis in particular because I bought a coach with only 158" wheelbase. My expectation was correct but I have been able to improve handling performance with aftermarket solutions including the Cheap Handling Fix (CHF).
I am sure others will be along and able to speak to the quality of the house, fit and finish, reliability of the systems (fridge, air conditioning, etc.), insulation and other items separate from the chassis and engine. Floor plan is also determining factor for many doing comparisons.
It is always fun and exciting trying to optimize the purchase!
