A vs. C

Hello All,
We currently own a 2009 Kingsport 295 QB and are thinking of selling the TT and buying a motorhome.
We just don't know if we want to get a class A or C.
I've read a lot about both and they have their own ups and downs.
Looking for some help from those that have/had owned these. Is there any one that has owned both and prefer one over the other?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

  • Where and how you will use your next RV will determine which is the better choice. The more info you share the more good input you will receive. What are you plans both short and long term? On the Class C Forum you will hear more good about C's, on the Class A Forum most will prefer A's. :B

    We sold our 22' TT 18 months ago going to a nice 24' Class C and after 21,000+ miles haven't looked back. For us the ability to take much longer trips with all of the same, if not more amenities and none of the hassles of dragging a trailer has been priceless. I have no problem with Class A's but for our use the C is a much better fit in so many ways.

    As always.... Opinions and YMMV

  • Ha had 4 A's and this C we have now.
    For us it was long term and lots of storage with the A. Now short term stays and not as much storage needed. We also preferred a C without the over cab Rug Rat Room.
    Found the ride in our C was smoother. As I do not sit right over the front axel.

    So kind of depends on your use and what fits your needs.
  • You said it, they both have ups and downs. That front cab bed is really nice if you have pre-teens and teens. If you have mobility issues it can be really difficult to get up from a C even a super-C. You can have your C serviced without having the greasy technician climb through your motorhome. Many A's have heavier suspensions and larger tires giving a smoother ride. So you must consider the type of floorplan that fits you best. Your budget, what you want to tow, how much gear you intent to take. There are some really beautiful C's and super-C's out there.
    Happy Trails.
