The Armada sits at the top of Holiday Rambler's Class A diesel pusher lineup, above the Holiday Rambler Admiral. Standard AquaHot 400D hydronic heat eliminates onboard propane, heated tile flooring runs up front, and the 44-foot floor plans add the UltraSteer tag axle for tighter turning despite the longer wheelbase. Four floor plans cover couples-focused layouts through family-bunk configurations.
Freightliner XCM Titan Bridge and Cummins L9
Every Armada runs the Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM platform with the Titan Bridge configuration. The 40M and 40P use the Cummins L9 diesel at 380 hp and 1,150 lb-ft of torque. The 44B and 44LE step up to the same L9 at 450 hp and 1,250 lb-ft. All four use the Allison 3000 MH 6-speed automatic and a Delco Remy 160-amp alternator.
The 44B and 44LE add the UltraSteer tag axle, ZF independent front suspension, and a 60-degree wheel cut for a tighter turning radius despite the longer wheelbase. Standard chassis equipment across the lineup includes BrakeSync, tire pressure monitoring, the V-Series suspension system with VFS front suspension, and dual cockpit monitors for camera and navigation.
Chassis Weight Ratings
The 40M and 40P share a 46,600-lb GCWR, a 10,000-lb hitch, and a 1,000-lb tongue weight rating. The 40M runs a 263-inch wheelbase; the 40P a 276-inch.
The 44B and 44LE step up to a 58,600-lb GCWR, a 15,000-lb hitch, and a 1,500-lb tongue weight rating, both on a 309-inch wheelbase. Fuel capacity is 100 gallons across all four plans.
AquaHot 400D and No Propane
The AquaHot 400D hydronic system handles space heating, hot water, and engine pre-heat from a single diesel-fired unit that draws from the chassis fuel tank. That means no onboard propane tank, no LP lines, and no LP safety equipment.
Combined with the induction cooktop (also diesel-and-electric only), the Armada runs completely propane-free, which is unusual at this tier and a real trip-planning advantage for full-timers.
Heated Tile Flooring
Heated tile flooring is standard up front, with an option to extend heated tile to the rear living area. The heated tile system pairs with the AquaHot 400D so it warms without electrical resistance or LP.
Interior and Kitchen
The interior runs Holiday Rambler's Vacu-Bond floors, walls, and ceiling with the Powerlock System, plus Apex Custom Furniture residential-style furniture. Multiple decor packages, cabinetry finishes, and exterior paint schemes are available.
The galley pairs a residential refrigerator with in-door ice and water (40M, 44B, 44LE), an induction cooktop, a convection microwave, a dishwasher, and a pull-out galley top across all floor plans. The 40P uses a residential refrigerator without ice/water.
Sleeping and Baths
The 40M, 44B, and 44LE carry an Encore Series King bed (72 x 80) in the rear master. The 40P uses a Serenity Series King. The 44LE carries his-and-hers sinks in the master bath with a 56 x 38 tile shower with seat.
Washer/dryer configuration varies: stackable on the 40M and 44LE, side-by-side on the 44B. The 40P and 44B carry the family bunk configuration.
Optional Technology Package
The optional Technology Package bundles a Wi-Fi Extender Pro Pack with LTE, a cell booster, a 330-watt solar panel, Collision Mitigation by MobilEye (forward-collision warning and adaptive features), and the Firefly Eclipse module for remote app access via Wi-Fi. Starlink is also available as a separate factory option.

Standard equipment includes the AquaHot 400D hydronic heating (eliminating onboard propane), heated tile flooring, residential appliances, and the option of an UltraSteer tag axle on the 44-foot floor plans. It's offered in four floor plans (40M, 40P, 44B, 44LE) from 40 to 44 feet.
What chassis is the Armada built on?
The Armada runs the Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM platform with Titan Bridge configuration. The 40M and 40P carry the Cummins L9 at 380 hp / 1,150 lb-ft; the 44B and 44LE step up to the L9 at 450 hp / 1,250 lb-ft. All four use the Allison 3000 MH 6-speed automatic.

How much can the Armada tow?
Tow capacity varies by floor plan. The 40M and 40P carry a 10,000-lb hitch with 1,000-lb tongue rating and a 46,600-lb GCWR. The 44B and 44LE step up to a 15,000-lb hitch, 1,500-lb tongue rating, and 58,600-lb GCWR. Confirm tow vehicle weight against the coach's actual GCWR before towing.
What is the AquaHot 400D system?
The AquaHot 400D is a hydronic heating system that handles cabin heat, hot water, and engine pre-heat from a single diesel-fired unit drawing from the chassis fuel tank. That means the Armada carries no onboard propane, no LP tank, no LP lines, and no LP safety equipment. Cooking is handled by an induction cooktop, so the coach runs entirely propane-free.
What is the Titan Bridge chassis?
Titan Bridge is the exclusive Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM configuration used on the Armada. It pairs the Cummins L9 diesel with the Allison 3000 MH transmission, the V-Series suspension with VFS front, BrakeSync, and tire pressure monitoring. On the 44B and 44LE it adds ZF independent front suspension with the UltraSteer tag axle and a 60-degree wheel cut.
What floor plans does the Armada come in?
The Armada is available at MHSRV in four floor plans: the 40M (40'1", Encore King master, sofa sleeper, stackable washer/dryer), the 40P (40'4", Serenity King master with bunk beds), the 44B (44', tag axle, Encore King master with wardrobe-convertible bunks and side-by-side washer/dryer), and the 44LE (44', tag axle, Encore King master with his-and-hers sink bath and 56 x 38 tile shower).

The 44B carries 28 x 73 bunks that convert into a wardrobe when not needed. The 40M and 44LE don't carry dedicated bunks and are configured for couples or smaller groups.
Does the Armada have heated floors?
Yes. Heated tile flooring up front is standard, with an option to extend heated tile to the rear living area. The heated tile system pairs with the AquaHot 400D hydronic system, so it warms without electrical resistance or LP dependency.
What is the optional Technology Package?
The Technology Package bundles a Wi-Fi Extender Pro Pack with LTE, a cell booster, a 330-watt solar panel, Collision Mitigation by MobilEye (forward-collision warning and adaptive features), and the Firefly Eclipse module for remote coach control via Wi-Fi. Starlink is available as a separate factory option.
Do I need a CDL to drive the Holiday Rambler Armada?
Federal law exempts motorhomes from CDL requirements, so a commercial license is not required. However, every Armada floor plan carries a GVWR/GCWR above the 26,001-lb threshold that some states use for a non-commercial license class (California, Hawaii, Nevada, Wisconsin, and a handful of others). Rules vary by state and change over time, so check your state's DMV before purchase.
