We are three weeks into our first serious trip in our 24' Class C after four years with 22' TT. Our new C is much shorter than the OPs and we have no desire/need to tow. His new rig will take some getting used to, :Cwatch the driveways you choose to enter as the rear overhang can leave you stranded/hungup. Loading is important as well especially weight to the rear which can make the front end light and have serious adverse effect on steering.
We love the change and ours fits just about any parking lot(out away from the crowd). Like I said, no need for the load of a toad. This is the easiest RV we have ever encountered, down any road, into any site but still has all the bells and whistles and 10 mpg.
