Those GMC motorhomes were ahead of their time . Lots of innovations that other RV's didn't have at the time . Powered by an Oldsmobile Toronado front wheel drive 455 V8 . I think it was the first large motorhome with front wheel drive .

Rumor was that GM had so much R&D $$$ in the program that they never turned a profit . Every one sold was a loss .

Dodge had something similar called the Travco . It was a fiberglass shell shaped like an Airstream . Traditional rear wheel drive with either a 413 or 440 V8 .

The aluminum Airstream motorhomes have a cult following . Fairly rare they command big $$$ on the used market for a good one . Airstream killed their motorhome advantage when they went to fiberglass .
