RV Sink Faucet with Angled Spout and Shower Diverter

Question:

I have a 2019 Northern Lite Truck Camper, the big one, 10EX CD Special Edition, with the wet bath. The bathroom sink is plastic, oval and small. The faucet is inexpensive, but its main problem is the spout barely sticks out over the lip of the bowl, and sits at the narrow end of the oval, making the faucet essentially unusable. The faucet outlet extends only 2.75inch from the sink side of the body base, which means that with the 1 inch bowl lip, the spout barely extends over the edge of the bowl, and it is difficult to even get your hands under the running water. The faucet fixture measures 5.25inch from back of body base to front edge of outlet spout. I am replacing the sink with a larger one 16.75inch by 11.75inch OD, also with 1 inch lip, also oval limited space to put in a larger sink, lightweight stainless steel. Because of plumbing issues, I will still have to mount the faucet at the apex of the oval. I am looking for a replacement sink faucet with shower diverter that has a longer spout - longest possible! Which model do you recommend, and on that faucet what is the distance that the spout will extend past the lip? Thanks SO much!

All of faucets that have a diverter for a shower head are "bathtub" faucets, which by nature are compact and do not stick out far. By contrast, bathroom basin sinks come with available with tall arches and stick out over the bowl. Of the faucets with a diverter, the Phoenix Faucets # PF213364 seems like it sticks out the furthest.
