I spent some time rereading all the posts and again, thanks for the info
Rolin I'm looking at both traditional C's and B+. While I'll most likely do the bulk of the driving, I have to consider my wife sitting behind the wheel. I've driven trucks and buses(I had CDL but gave it up 20 years ago). I don't know how comfortable she will be handling a C. She never drove anything bigger than Grand Caravan, so B+ is in the mix. It is just tough finding a B+ that can handle 2 adults + 2 young adult children, but they do seem to exist(at least on paper). I think she could do well with a C, just more to deal with after only driving cars.
One of the frustrating things is getting weight info. I wish OCCC and UVW were listed for at least standard layout on sites or brochures. It is rather scary reading how many people discovered that they were over loaded. read posting (on other sites) of people carrying half or a quarter of the fresh water because of weight. I even read that someone got a B and was way over because OCCC was unreasonably low. I guess it will soon be time to start hitting the pavement are reading labels. I guess my first show will be in Atlantic City in February if the weather holds up. Really would like to add Solar but would like to know the weight offset.
