Let me add this..
I see a lot of Class A (gas) units for sale in the 10-15 year old range that are similar in price to Class C.
I've always wanted the Class C for the overhead bunk though.
Any thoughts on...
1. With 2 daughters (ages 14 and 12), is it too much trouble to set up the couch for sleeping? Like, how much importance is the overhead bunk on a roadtrip with a family?
2. Driving experience - are these older Class A's more difficult to drive than a Class C?

I know you've already made your decision, but I wanted to comment on #1. That was our concern as well. Somewhat naively, my plan was to put 3 kids in the overhead bunk. After one night of "He's touching me, She's breathing too loud, He's on my side!" we tossed that plan out the window. We hung a curtain across the front half of the RV to section it off. We used Command hooks on the ceiling and paper binders to hold the curtain. That allowed us to put one kid on the bunk, one on the jackknife couch and one on the folded down dinette. They love this arrangement and it still allows us use of the door, kitchen, bathroom, etc.
