Diesel class c

Definition - Class C has the motor in front under the hood. Made from a truck or van chassis.

Definition - Diesel pusher has the motor in the rear. That is why it is called a "pusher."

By definition, a Class C is built on a van cutaway or van-cab chassis. In the van chassis category we have front engine rear drive, gas and diesel, and we have front engine front drive, gas and diesel. Aftermarket we have front engine four-wheel drive, but I don't know that I've ever seen 4WD in a van cutaway chassis.

In the U.S. market, the only pusher vans offered have been from Volkswagen (first three generations of the Type 2) and Chevrolet (1960s Corvair Van). Neither has been offered as a motorhome chassis, only as a conversion, and neither has been offered as diesel in the U.S. market. The Corvair gas pusher drive train was used for a number of years in a motorhome, but the motorhome builder had to develop its own chassis.

So AFAIK, what you are looking for does not exist. Any diesel pusher motorhome you find will be Class A, built on a bare chassis, not built on a van cutaway.

Diesel Class C motorhomes might be found on M-B (formerly Dodge or Freightliner) and Ford or Chevrolet cutaway vans, the latter only in the used vehicle market, but these are all front-engine rear drive. Winnebago made some diesel Class C motorhomes on a Renault platform, these were front-engine, front drive. Front-engine front-drive vans from Fiat/Chrysler and front-engine rear-drive vans from Ford have diesel engine options, but nobody is yet offering the the diesel option from Ford or Fiat for a motorhome in North America.

All the diesel pusher chassis offerings I know of are from U.S. manufacturers, all are bare chassis (RV Class A) and they start at about 26,000 pounds GVWR.

New to forum, looking to buy a used Class C diesel pusher with slide outs. Willing to travel to pick up.

First of all - welcome to the Forum.
Second, I think you need to brush up on your terminology!
By definition there are no Class C pushers - they are built on a van chassis. You may find a diesel, but they are pretty scarce.
I suspect you meant a Class A, AKA a big box on wheels.

Finally, this post may get shut down as the rules do not allow advertising or solicitation on the Forum.

Sorry!

Class C diesel pusher does not exist.
Can you be more specific?
