More down market Class C

Robert .... thanks for the photo above. I can appreciate the beautiful interiors but as usual, my concerns extend past mere good looks to such things as:

- Are the FW, BW, fresh, propane tanks sizes large enough?
- How much interior and exterior storage is available?
- What is the travel range before refueling?
- What is the excess weight carrying capacity after being loaded for travel?
- Are the beds always available, or do you have to make them up each night before using them?
- Does the galley include both a conventional oven and a cooktop ... instead of a cooktop and a microwave/convection combination? (A m/c combination requires full power AC to run it in oven mode - a conventional oven only requires propane.)
- Does the cab overhead area extend far enough past the front windshield to help reduce glare in the cab area?
- Does it have a quiet built-in generator, powered from the large capaciy main fuel tank, for times when there is no sun and propane is low?
- Does it have a built-in battery storage area capable of at least two large batteries?
- If one must have a Class C with slides, is it fully functional when the slides cannot be extended at a campsite?

My concerns are based on ten of thousands of miles of travel within (only, however) the U.S.. For instance, we just completed a 10,000+ mile excursion from Canada to the far corner of Maine. We ran into all kinds of travel and campsite situations - hookups, no hookups, mostly non-level campsites, bright glaring sun from air full of forest fire smoke, tight parking spots, tight fuel pump access at stations, gas only at fuel pumps (no diesel), 12% grades to mountain campsites, gravel roads in the woods, curvy climbs to mountain peaks, etc., etc.. There is no substitute for as much practicality as possible in a Class C if one wants travel flexibility, regardless of it's beauty.
