I was 43 when we bought our Class A back in 2004. Still own it, now I'm 54.
A lot of "younger" families looking for a motorhome are often steered toward a Class C. Some silly adage about "Class A's are for couples, Class C's are for families." While there might be some truth to that in specific situations, it isn't true for everyone. It's all about the floorplan, storage & holding tanks for the planned usage of the motorhome. The dual sofa, dual slide floorplan in our Class A has been perfect for our family of 6 over the last 10 years, and we expect it to be for the next 10+ years as well. Unfortunately, it's not a popular floorplan in gassers. I think if it were, many would find it a good fit.
For those looking for a rig, too many people listen to the salespeople. Do your own research and buy what fits your needs best.
Oh...and Merry Christmas!!! :)
