Looking for Class C terminology

I am looking to purchase a Class C, but I want one that does not have a cab-over extension. I have seen only a few like this.
Can anyone tell me the proper terminology for these models, as when I search the different sites, I don't want to see the cab-over models.
Thanks!

{edited - sorry!}
  • B = Van turned into an RV inside the van.

    C = Cab (cockpit area) with frame sent to RV maker who then adds a box to the back that is turned into an RV.

    B+ does not technically exist but refers to something in between the two. It's usually a cab and chassis (Class C) with no over-cab bed and a bigger box on the back than just the van shell. B+ is a "tweener"

    So, figure out which one you want and search these. The problem is that whoever posts the ad may not know which is which and may improperly classify it in the first place. Not all sale sites have a B+ category.
  • If you are looking for a true Class C with a small cab-over,aerodynamic body there is the Leisure Van

    If you want a RV with no cab-over then you would want a Class B such as a Roadtrek

    Hope that this will help with the correct and proper terminology when looking to purchase that RV.
  • There are quite a few like Bondo's Concord. Winnie makes some and I think Fleetwood too.
  • I have a 2014 Coachmen Concord, Class C (although some refer to it as a B+). It does not have the front overhang, but rather has an aerodynamic front end cap that begins at the cab roofline. Not sure if this is what you are referring to, but if so, I can tell you we love everything about ours!
  • You have us all confused.. first off.. there is nothing called a Class 111, maybe you mean a Class C. But then you want a cab-over extension, but you do not want to see cab-over models?

    Perhaps you want a Class B+. Those come with entertainment centers over the cab and are usually built for two people only. Triple E made the Regency model and I had one of those.

    check this link Triple E... and check to the bottom, there are other types
