What is your tolerance for living in a small space that feels cold, with non-operable plumbing?
Either type of RV will survive winter conditions when winterized. Cold weather won't prevent travel, but may change the way you live in the RV. If you have power and fuel for the furnace, you can heat up the living space, but you may feel cold from heat loss through walls, windows especially, and in the B's and most small C's, through the floor.
Larger RVs can get you into three-season and four-season designs with larger furnaces, heavier insulation, insulated windows, and heated basement spaces containing freeze-prone utilities, but I don't think you are going to find much like this at 20-feet unless you are ready to have it custom built.
