M380 vs other fiberglass coaches

[gepatch]

I'm on my second M380 and love it, But want 3 slides. I also have a
new Prevost. I use the Prevost for Rallys and general traveling and
the M380 for back woods, sand dunes, Mexico, etc. I find the BB
drives and handles great. I'm hoping the new owners produce a
tripple slide.
I've looked at other motorhomes in the 38 ft range, but cannot find
one that has the safety up front.
On one of my previous motorhome by another Company, I forgot to set
the em brake and it rolled 8 ft and hit a small pine tree at the
drivers headlight. The whole front corner fell off and hit the
street. There was nothing behind the light to stop anything from
hitting my feet.
Does anyone know of a a motorhome that has up front strong bumper.
I'm setting next to a new CC and a 2004 beaver. We got underneath
and looked at the front support. Nothing
