Harry,
You will find in your search that any chassis that is monocoque or semi monocoque is far quieter than a motorhome build on a raised rail chassis. The house part of the monocoque does not flex nearly as much as a box set on top of rails. I have had both. On the standard raised rail motorhome, the whole thing was a squeak and a rattle. At the end of every day, I patrolled that motorhome with a screwdriver to tighten everything back up. I don't do that with the Newell. I would suspect that Prevosts, Foretravels, Bluebirds, and few other high ends build on the monocoque structure behave similarly well.
