The difference that matters

Two 33-foot Super Cs that each tow 15,000 lb, separated by chassis. The Lineage Series F 31ZW sits on a Ford F-600 4x4 cab chassis with a 22,000 lb GVWR, a 245-inch wheelbase and a 66.5-gallon fuel tank. The Dynamax Europa 31SS rides a Freightliner M2 106 with a 360 hp Cummins 6.7L, an Allison six-speed, air brakes, rear air suspension, an exhaust brake and a 33,000 lb GVWR.

The Europa carries more as standard: an Onan 8 kW diesel generator with auto start, a 3,000 W inverter, 490Ah of AGM batteries, 200 W of solar, enclosed heated tanks, and two slides with a king bed in the rear one. Its fresh tank holds 94 gallons against 79. The Lineage sleeps five and has the larger gray tank, 66 gallons against 52.

Four-wheel drive is the Lineage's clearest advantage for steep, loose or snowy access roads, and it costs around $325,000 against around $366,000 for the Europa. The Europa suits owners who want heavy-truck braking and suspension for long hauls with a big trailer.

Grand Design Lineage Series F 31ZW: Owners who tow a heavy trailer into rough or snowy country and want four-wheel drive.
Dynamax Europa 31SS: Long-haul travelers towing big loads who want air brakes, air ride and a diesel generator.
