C's less trouble than A's ?

I'll relay a comment from a guy by himself in a big A parked at a rest stop in Jasper Park by Talbut Lake. He had an engine water leak, possibly water pump failure. No phone service there but he had driven his towed to get service and called for repair. The nearest service for his rig was at Edson, about 2 hours away. A large tow truck was coming to get his A.

He said we were smart to be driving our 20 foot class C which would be much easier and cheaper to fix.
