This kind of road will give you the opportunity to stress your frame and your camper.

If you are really interested in this stuff, this is, perhaps, the best, classic study on overland campers. Lots of fun to read: http://www.xor.org.uk/silkroute/equipment/choosevan.htm
Worth noting that after building one of his own, Stephen ended up buying a used Bimobil: http://www.xor.org.uk/campervan/index.html
Our truck is currently under construction at Tiger Adventure Vehicles. http://www.tigervehicles.com I have never owned a Class B or C and, after a lifetime of living next as opposed to inside, a vehicle, we are looking forward to it. Especially indoor plumbing and a kitchen out of the rain/cold!
Suspension work, to increase wheel travel, is underway.

Prepping for bed, in the dark, at 8,000 feet can get nippy.

And sometimes the washboard never stops. (Mid Sahara - only a few more weeks to go.) 10 mph isn't really an option. But then, this isn't a Class C either.
