If you go small you will most likely want to upgrade sooner than later. So if you do buy a smaller unit, buy a used one and I would skip the over priced Mercedes. The reasons for a C versus an A in my opinion are limited. The main reason for a C is sleeping arrangements. hey seemed to be more designed for families than typical A's. Most but not all C's have a bunk over the cab. Larger C's have both the cab over bed and a regular bed in the back. If you go for a small C you may be limited in bedding options. Do you really want to climb a ladder to get in the bed?
I have heard that some larger C's are very close to maximum weight before you add you and your stuff, so check this when looking. Also, check storage areas. Is there enough storage for the stuff you care to take with you.
Some people feel more comfortable driving a C versus an A simply because the cab is more like what they are used to. But a 30 ft C is not really any easier to drive than the same length C.
Good luck.
