Need a Class C for subzero temps and a few other questions
My wife and I are looking to get something about the size of a Class C that is prepared for subzero temps, probably down to about -20F, maybe a bit lower. I plan on skiing all over North America, including AK. All the reputable manufacturers that I'm familiar with (which is admittedly not many) only make cold weather RVs in travel trailer versions, and we'd prefer something that you can drive rather than tow.
In addition, we plan on taking it down rocky/worn/rutted/icy/snowy/dirt roads so it needs to be well made, powerful and secure. It will be offgrid probably 90% of the time we are living in it, which will be 365/7 for 4 or 5 years.
It needs to be able to tow my 2007 4Runner, so allowing for a good margin of safety, I'd say it needs 10,000# capacity.
Gotta be between 20' and 30' long, preferably with 1 slide.
Also, why is it so hard to find a RV made for these uses, and why are most of the RVs I've looked at so far (at dealers) so poorly constructed? I don't see why anyone would pay $100k for something that a bunch of high school freshmen put together in shop class.
Any suggestions on manufacturer/model that would be suitable?
