Eventually, you're going to want "more space", and a 45 ft class A is as big as RVs go. It will have a diesel and a diesel generator, and at least a 100 gallon tank. Some coaches have a propane generator which is not anywhere as desirable as a diesel since you can run out of propane very quickly, but not diesel.
Generators are very efficient users of diesel, but they are noisy. You are probably going to want to add solar panels to reduce the running time of the generator.
As others have noted, your holding tanks will be more of a concern than fuel. Class A rigs generally have larger tanks then Class C, and possibly even a Super C.
My 23 yr old rig has a 40 gallon black water tank and 60 gal grey water tank. I believe my fresh water tank is 60 gallons, but my memory is failing me. My fuel tank holds 150 gallons. My wife and I can go two weeks boondocking. It is the black water tank that is our weakest link.
