Overall height E450 with ducted air conditioning.

Post by midnightpumpkin »

Does anyone know the overall height of the coaches built on the E450 with ducted air conditioning. My 2010 22RSK is 118.5 inches, the ducted air has to be taller.
Thanks

From the Sales Brochure for 2014 & 2015 Born Free models posted elsewhere on this forum, an RSK built on the E450 chassis has a maximum height of 10’ (120”) - not higher than your 118.5” height.

I measured mine. 10 feet 6 inches. Most often when traveling I consider 11 feet my minimum.

As an aside, the first time I entered Canada the entry point had height measurement in meters. I panicked and approached slowly as I had only a rough idea of the conversion of 10 ft 6 in to meters. I quickly then converted height, width, length and weigh to exact metric (with a bit extra to be safe) and posted them on my dashboard!

Oops! I missed the word “ducted”. My apologies to Bill. I do not have an answer. However I can speculate. The cab over would be the tallest point in a ducted system whereas the roof air unit is the tallest point on mine so there would be a difference. What that would be I have no idea.
