Are we considered "trucks" on the road?
With a 24ft class C, should I follow all road signs and speed limits for trucks on the road?

I agree with those who stated motor homes can follow automobile speed limits. But if towing anything, you must follow the posted truck speed limit.
Reducing speed increases fuel economy and eases driver fatique. If your rig handles like a drunken sailor, you can often make better time by slowing down and stopping less often for fuel and rest. That was the case with our first rig. We drove 57mph all the time and actually made better time. But our rig today, we can drive faster and make time. It depends on the rig, how it handles, and the difference in fuel economy between 57mph and 67 mph.
