The chassis of the 2006 Magellan Class A motor home is built on a steel frame. The sidewalls are made of fiberglass with aluminum framing, and the roof consists of a material called Thermoplastic Olefin (TPO). TPO consists of two layers, a top layer that reflects sunlight and prevents thermal heating inside the RV, and a bottom layer that is welded directly on the roof, eliminating the use of traditional solvent-based adhesives to secure the roof in place. Often, these adhesives breakdown overtime, and require additional repair costs. The Magellan Class A also comes equipped with two sinks, two toilets and a shower.
The 2006 Magellan Class A motor home chassis is a Workhorse W22, which has a reputation for great handling. The engine rests in the front and the motor home has rear wheel drive (RWD). The brakes on all for tires are disk brakes with anti-lock brake system (ABS). ABS allows the driver to maintain control of the vehicle during a heavy braking situation, rather than skidding and losing control.
The 2006 Magellan Class A motor home weighs 20,020 pounds, dry weight. Fully loaded with all necessary fluids, such as gas and water, the weight climbs to 22,000 pounds. The RV's length is 37 feet, the height is 12 feet and the width is 10 feet. The gas tank is capable of carrying up to 75 gallons. The Magellan Class A engine is a gas powered, General Motors 8.1 Liter V8, which is capable of 340 horsepower. The transmission is a six-speed automatic.

All of this information is subject to change when purchasing a used 2006 Magellan Class A. Factors, such as mileage and vehicle condition will affect the final overall price.
