People who live and work on the road in small groups use a Crew Bus. It is also called a "band bus" when it is carrying the band rather than the stage crew.
Not strictly a RV, more of a commercial vehicle, a crew bus provides bunks for eight to twelve people, with moderate privacy, and a common living area with modest cooking and eating facilities.
I work stage crew, volunteer, at our community theater. The professional stage crews (roadies) come in on these all the time.
I think an old crew bus would make a great full-timing vehicle for a large family. A lot more suited to the purpose than a Class A RV that has been configured either for full-timing by a couple, or short term "camping" for a SMALL family.
The RV industry does not very well address the needs of large families. That is from the experience of a large family (8 children, parents, grandparents) that RVed up to ten of us at a time.
