CLASS A vs. CLASS C

I have had 2 Cs, 2 As and also a B. I don't want another C because 90% of them are going to leak in the cabover sooner or later. Look on the C forum and see how many have leak problems. There are a few exceptions but they are the minority.

You could probably get better feedback if you would give some information about how you intend to use your motorhome. I personnally went with Class A because I felt I could get much more living and storage space for not a lot difference in cost. I have a lower end gas Class A. Manufacturers now have a crossover motorhome which is a combination of Class A & C. You might check into those also. Good Luck!

Class A for me provides better wide view of highway & surrounding scenery while driving and the ease of access to other areas of coach for wife while traveling.

Other than that can't think any other reasons I prefer the class "A".

Best of luck with your choice and enjoy safe travels...

You're posting in the Class A section of the Forums, so you're going to get pretty biased opinions towards Class A. I, too, prefer Class A, obviously since I bought a Class A, for the reasons stated above me. Ultimately, you will have to decide which is best for your application. You need to spend a lot of time looking at all options on both types of RVs. In fact, don't rule out a pull-behind or a 5th wheel until you decide for yourself AFTER looking at all of them and considering the pros and cons as they relate to YOUR preferred method of travel. Go to RV shows. Go to sales lots. Look around online. Look at friends' RVs. Talk to them. Rent both a Class A and a Class C and drive them around on trips if you haven't made your decision yet. You are going to spend a lot of money on whatever you buy so you'd better be happy with your purchase!!

Good Luck!!

They say the difference in how much better a DP rides compared to a gasser is also the same story in how much better a class A rides over a C. We rented a Class C years ago and you couldn't even lie on the bed it was so rough and bumpy. The cab area is pretty much unusable while parked in a class c where in a class A it becomes living room seating as well as the panoramic window. Speaking of, the seating position in a class A while driving is far better than a Class C. Your field of vision is wider and higher and you are over the wheels so turning and judging is easier. There is a reason that Class A's are at the top of the food chain in the RV world. They ride better, more usable space, better amenities, etc.

plenty of nice Class C's but dollar for dollar I think A's just have a lot more to offer.

If you compare the actual useable living space of similar sized Class A and Class C the Class A has more useable living space.

I find I like driving a Class A better than I do a Class C.

Another thing to keep in mind the drivetrain and suspension components for a Class A come from the same used in Commercial Truck fleets. They are designed for up to a million miles of trouble free commercial service. Reliabilty is built in.

My choice would be a Class A.

We are using our 8th class a coach on a regular basis.
38 ft Monaco Knight quad slide.
We favor an A due to the driver and passenger area can be used as a living area (seats turn into the living area).
In a C class most of the time the front area is not used to live in.
The other reason for us, due to dry camping, most class A coaches have a lot more water, propane and fuel capacity.

I found that with the class C, the driver has to sit up so close to the steering wheel. For me being rather long legged. I feel like my knees are up under my chin. Other than that we really like the class c.

Class A much more comfort.
