Agree with mumkin, that a B+ is closer to a Class C than a Class B. (We had one once, so I'm agreeing from personal experience.)

A RV can't be "closer" to a Class C or Class B. A Class B RV is built on a chassis that left the manufacturer as a van, hence RV.net's Camping Van Conversions forum. A Class C RV is built on a chassis that left the manufacturer with a cab but nothing behind it.

One thing we found with our little MH (motorhome) was that, without a separate vehicle, once we got settled in camp, it was a big hassle to go anywhere if we needed supplies or firewood, or if we wanted to go sightseeing. In some campgrounds, you would need to leave some of your personal belongings (camp chairs, coolers, etc.) in order to mark your site as occupied, or you might return after a day of sightseeing to find someone else had taken your site. Just FYI.

What kind of RV one needs is all about what kind of "camping" one does. We have a Class B that we have put 145K miles on and never experienced any of the issues above. That's because we bought an RV to travel the country and not spend days or weeks in one spot. We do occasionally leave a camping spot in our RV, but it only amounts to dropping the electrical, water and cable connections and driving off. Never had anything walk away.
