we just did the same--have been full-timing for a year and after spending the winter in our beloved Winnie gave it up for the increased roominess in the class A. I have not driven this unit, tho I did the C on a limited basis. DH drove just over 900 miles immediately following possession of this unit thru mountains, desert, and valleys and need I say WIND! he maneuvered through narrow streets in and out of gas stations with our toad. he loves the view--and we sit higher. other than that, he remains cautious until he gets used to the new length and comfortable with the drive of this coach which apparently needs a little more stabilization tho the former owner drove the unit fairly extensively. I'd say he's done well using the experience from our C and he tried test driving several A's that we looked at before buying this one. good luck and have fun!
