Going from Class A to Class C

This is fun. I have owned a gasser class A. A 2010 chassis under a 2011 E350 class C and now a 2013 4500 Chevy chassis under a 2014 class C with 40k miles on it.
My experience so far has been the new to me Chevy class C is far better than the E350 class C I had. I did most of the mods to the E350 and still had to hold onto the wheel most of the time with both hands. The major mods were alignment per “Harvey” on this forum. Plus a Safe-T-Plus on the steering. Both worked very well on the Ford with only 13k miles on it.
Without discussing any of the other pluses. The Chevy with 40k miles on it is far more comfortable too drive. It only needs shocks. Cross winds are not a problem like I had on the modified E350. Trucks passing are not the minor problem I had on the modified E350. My E350 was only inches shorter than this Chevy wheelbase. The new to me rig is about an inch longer overall than the Ford.
Just one persons experience. I hope this helps.
