Thinking of Purchasing a Class C

The wife and I are thinking of purchasing a Class C. Something in the 29'-31' size. We like the bunk bed models since we take our grandkids with us on most trips. I know there is a good size cabover bed but there will come a time that the granddaughter will not want to sleep in the same bed as her brother. We also like the bedroom with no slide and a walk around bed. I like the models that have a couch and dinette. I would like to hear the positives and negatives from Class C owners. What would you change about your coach? What do you really like about it? Thank you in advance for your comments.

  • Depending on when you plan to purchase I would talk to some `C' owners in the campgrounds around your house and ask the same questions.
  • One kid can sleep in the overhead and the other on the dinette bed - we just put a blanket down to cover the fabric and let the kids sleep in their sleeping bag - easy peasy.
  • I guess the first few questions to that would be,,,,,
    Are you looking at frequently having the Grkids along or occasionally?
    Are the parents usually coming too?
    Is this for extensive touring or week or less trips?

    If kids only occasionally converting a sofa and dinette isnt that bad, if frequent you may want something with twin bunks. If the parents come also, Overhead bunk would be appreciated as well.
    If usually just you and DW, you may want to configure for that.

    Look for instance at the Jayco line. They have 26' class A and C units with Queen bad, sofa, dinette and overhead bed or 31' with twin bunks as well. Not suggesting a brand, just showing floor plan differences.
    Also suggest you consider that GK's will become teens that start doing things that halt travel, from sports leagues to church and school activities, they may not be travelling as often as you hope.
    Good luck
