Normally a dealer won't let you take one out for a drive, especially if you haven't driven one before. In fact about 10 years ago, we looked at a Class A gasser and even though I had been driving a school bus for 5 years, I couldn't drive it off the lot. The salesman had to drive it off the lot and down the street to a place we could change drivers in a large empty parking lot and I had to show him that I really could drive it. When we bought the diesel several years later, we didn't get to drive it at all,just ride.
We went from a 32' Cougar TT and an Excursion diesel to the Class A. We've had some problems with it,it's a 2001 with 111,200 miles, but would never go back.
Actually a large Class A DP is easier to manouver than a school bus as the steering cut is about 55 degrees and the school bus is higher. However,the school bus has better visibility with all those windows, A tad bit louder inside though.
