Slideouts on a ClassC: How many?
Interesting here Slideouts are common on Motorhomes but not Caravans in Australia. What do you find is an iptimum number and type?

Our 55 gallon fuel tank, 39 gallon FW tank, 39 gallon BW tank, 29 gallon GW tank, and 6 gallon hot water heater are all behind the rear axle of our 24 ft. E450-based Class C. HOWEVER, the heavy Onan genny and 18 gallon propane tank are way in the front right behind the cab area ... so I'm pretty sure that the Onan, the propane tank, the V10 engine, the transmission, the DW, and me all on their long lever arms to the rear axle ... are balancing things out!
I run about 75 PSI in the rear tires and about 65 PSI in the front tires. Even with all that weight in the rear, I still had to install Koni variable-rate shocks back there to reduce the pounding from the E450's relatively stiff rear leaf springs. (Many/most short Class C motorhomes are built on the E350 chassis.)
