Looking for Perfect Class C or B+ for Me
Class C (or anything that meets criteria)
Not huge (say, max 30')
One occupant
Walk around bed (can be a twin or a double)
Dinette (don't care for couches or recliners)
Large shower
Long Term Occupancy
True 5000 lb or greater tow capable
Some boondocking capability (fresh water tank, generator, etc.)
The only floor-plan (and it's near perfect) I've found that really meets my criteria (except shower is smaller than I like) is the Jayco Melbourne Prestige 24KP or LP. Problems with this RV:
- Holy **** expensive!!!
- Only 3800lb tow capable
- Only 500lb cargo capacity (me, a dog, a trailer tongue, a dozen eggs and there's no capacity for a toothbrush and a loaf of bread!)
I'm retiring and would like to have an RV I can afford to live in full time or at least extended periods. I want to tow a trailer or small vehicle.
I'm sure I'm not asking a lot of questions that I should be so I'm open to just about any idea or recommendation.
Im not a complete noob as I just sold the first RV I owned, a Fuzion 301 bumper pull toyhauler. Great rig for what it is but we just didn't get along on the highway; and the layout: shower too small, having to crawl up into a bed to sleep or make it up, and what the heck good is a double recliner you had to sit sideways in to watch TV????????
TIA
