I agree speed is a big factor. And weight. It costs to take it all with you.
We have a small C which looks quite a bit larger than that Rialta inside. I love the clean look of that Rialta on the outside, though. Im sure it is a pleasure to drive. We can go 400 km on 80 L of gas, which I think is 11.8 mpg, at about 55 mph. It happens to be the same as our older 3/4 ton van pulling a popup tent trailer.
I can tell you I was surprised at how few miles we travel with the motorhome. When DW and i head out in the MH we are totally relaxed and don't care how far we go in a day. Often we don't go even 100 miles. Our longest trip in 4 years was 3000 km costing about $700 for fuel over two weeks. It does cost money to travel, but at the very small bathroom range a little more money makes it a lot more comfortable. I do think you can carry that too far and end up with a big rig that is best left parked for weeks or months. Each of us must choose for ourselves how much house space to pay for and navigate in traffic,
