Shortest Class C Recommendations
Hi, I am hoping to buy a used Class C to full time in, and need recommendations. I feel like a Class B would be too cramped for me plus they are too expensive :/ I want a short Class C (nothin...

I would not get too hung up on mileage unless you plan to be driving it every day. In almost all cases, the chassis on a class C is not what wears out; the E series chassis is quite capable of going a few hundred thousand miles without major problems if given proper maintenance.
IMHO NADA is at best only a very rough guide for motorhome prices. There's not much data on any given model to provide a very firm valuation statistically, and very much of the value depends on aspects of condition that are hard to quantify directly (in the way that things like mileage and equipment can be quantified). There are also not insignificant regional and seasonal variations in used RV prices.
I'm personally unconvinced that a 24' motorhome is very much easier to park than a 32' one. In either case, you're generally too long to fit entirely in a single parking space comfortably, so you need two end-to-end (A standard parking space length, to the extent that there is a standard, is somewhere around 18 or 20 feet.) With the shorter length in particular there is the possibility of having the rear overhang grass or something behind a parking space, if you can find one that is unobstructed behind it, but at least around here that's more the exception than the rule.
