I understand class-C auto-levelers are good for only a few inches of leveling. You might want to look into their limitations.
Our 24 footer does not have them so I suppose we don't know what we are missing. We find the need to pull out our orange leveling blocks about half the time. The rest of the time, the campsite parking pad is either level or uneven so I watch the air bubble levelers and maneuver the rig on top of the highs & into the lows of the pavement to get it level. Every now and then the campsite is way out of wack with no hope to get the rig level. So then we do our best and try to make it so while sleeping, our heads are higher than our feet.
ADDING: We typically camp in tired, lesser-maintained campsites like in national parks, forests, monuments, etc. We rarely camp in an RV park where the sites are better maintained and the parking pads more level.
I advise to do without levelers on your first big trip to help with your decision, for they can be added at anytime. I am still determining if I want to spend the money... and we bought our rig 10 years ago. :)
