I have seen a Class "C" on a GMC Topkick with Duramax 5500 diesel but where would I find one? Who makes one? Any one here own one?

Some links:

These are pretty old and are custom work.

Toterhome is also mentioned in the Google results. Good luck with your search.

Those 2 have CATs not Duramax.

Current production uses the TopKick's brother with a Chevy label - the Kodiak C5500 - and they are made by several MH manufacturers. We have many owners of Kodiaks with Duramax on our Yahoo forum. (see sig below).

I have not seen a GMC Topkick chassis motorhome unless it was custom built. GM has put the Chevy name plate on the motorhome version of the C5500.

Jayco makes the Seneca line on the Chev C5500 chassis with the Duramax diesel motor. It is the same chassis as the GMC Topkick. There are Jayco dealers through out CA, Manteca Trailer & Motorhome in Manteca is where we bought our Seneca.
