Moving to Class C from TT Need Guidance
Okay folks, I have been an RV'er since 2010 now on my second TT. I love the TT but have decided I wanted some convenience a MH brings. SO, I just bought and will take delivery of a 2017 Minnie Winnie ...

Depending on how the sewer outlet is set up, if it's in an enclosed compartment, you might be able to put in something like the Coachmen inverse snorkel arrangement. This basically consists of a swiveling closet (as in toilet) flange mounted to the compartment floor, and attached underneath to a 90 degree elbow, a length of pipe, and a screw-in cap with a tether tied to it. The hose stays in the pipe and attached to the outlet all the time, and when it's time to dump you just undo the cap on the end, rotate the snorkel unit out, and extend the hose to the dump connection. The tether is there to keep it from swinging around too much while en route; it's attached to the body of the motorhome somewhere convenient.
I'm not sure I'm describing this all too well. If it's not clear, I can post a picture or two later.
About the other things, besides the tail swing, be aware that you will not have as tight a turning radius, and the pivot point is further back (along the rear axle, as with all vehicles). It's necessary start turns a little bit later than with a truck, and important to watch both sides when maneuvering in tight quarters.
