The small 25’ C meets our day use needs and parking needs at home, therefore the C is our rv of choice now.
The following is not to be negative but its something to strongly consider.

Your roadways might be in better shape than other large cities but other areas might not be that way.
Towing all of my six TT’s was very quiet inside the TV. You don’t have that luxury in many of not most all MH’s.
You hear things rattle and squeak , you are traveling inside the rv.
It took me 3 seasons of using waffle padding to quiet the pots, pans, dishes, stove top and microwave. Yes microwave , the roads are so full of potholes around big cities , it becomes a challenge to keep up with it. The coach and chassis suffer from pounding potholes. E450 dash squeaks very loud.
It’s very annoying to drive for long hours. You have to turn up the radio or hire a band.
Just something to think about, you might want to run this by with your co-pilot. Rent one to see if this will work for your family before you make a move like this. Some people end up kicking themselves for not keeping what they had.
