Hadn't really thought about a class B unit, like a Carriage House or Phoenix cruiser the previous poster mentioned. Now that Ford is offering their new 7.3 V8 in the E-450 chassis, I could be convinced to go to something built on that chassis, if the floorplan worked. May just have to look into that.
Just to avoid (?) confusion, those are what the makers call "class B+", which is marketing speak for "smallish class C with no cabover bunk." An actual class B is built inside a factory van chassis, possibly with a raised roof, while a class C is built on a cutaway chassis (or occasionally a chassis cab, as for a super C). I guess they figure a "B+" sounds better than a "C-" or something like that.
Regardless of the nomenclature, I do hope you find something that suits your needs and wants well.
