Driving a Class C in the Snow
I see a lot of posts about camping in the snow. I am not worried about that as we outfitted our rig with the tank heaters and thermal windows. I am more afraid of driving in the snow, not sure what...

Your post has renewed my faith. I have always felt comfortable to drive in the snow. I am conservative in general when the roads are anything but dry, so I will take the MH in the next snow around the neighborhood and get a feel for how it handles. Thanks!
You're welcome!! Let's face it - ALL of us who have RVs and live in the snowy north and wish to take a vacation where it's warmer - HAVE to drive in snow/ice/yuck. Yeah - the road salt will make the undersides rust quicker - but in all fairness, NOTHING created rust (for our Class C) as fast as camping at an oceanfront RV park along the Gulf...LOL!! When you get back home, rinse everything the best you can; and I've been using "Rust Converter" with a paintbrush over these last 10 years on spots that pop up, and it does a good job of stopping the spread of the rust.
Also - having driven just about every kind of car/truck, etc in snow: the longer the wheelbase, the better it handles. The squirreliest was our Jeep Wrangler until it was in 4WD. The Class C just lumbers along...LOL!!
Have fun!
