Thor Motor Coach Freedom Elite 31FE

Built on a Ford E-Series chassis with the 7.3L V8 pumping out 325 horsepower, the 31FE earns its keep on long hauls while returning better fuel economy than most Class A alternatives. The bunk slide is the real centerpiece. It opens up the living space considerably and gives the cabover bunk room its own breathing room. Outside, the MEGA-Storage compartment and rotocast side bins swallow gear that most Class Cs would leave in the tow vehicle, and that 8,000-lb hitch means you can still bring the boat or trailer. Wireless and USB charging ports built into the Dream Dinette table, an outdoor TV, and a 12V refrigerator round out a feature list that punches above what you'd expect at this price point.
