Where Do You Put Your Stuff in a Class B ??
Looking to purchase a Class B but we're concerned about lack of storage space. Bedding, duvet, pillows ... will it really fit in the overhead cupboard? Where do I hide the fold up chairs, table, etc...

We had a class B until recently. Not positive since we didn't have one, but I believe there are Thule bike carriers that can work with a rear tire. We met people who towed a small trailer for kayaks, but my perception is that towing would hamper the great advantage of a B's car-like qualities.
The amount of storage varies by model, of course - our Sprinter had fixed twin beds with a lot of long horizontal storage beneath and we didn't always need it all. Like most B owners, we got very good at winnowing down to only useful stuff and removing the rest. You prioritize daily items into the easiest-access storage - seems obvious, but takes a trip or two to get it right.
We also stored bedding at one end of the beds (rolled sleeping bags with homemade sheet liners, folded and stowed with the pillows in an overhead cabinet.
Part of the fun us finding small-space solutions. After wearing out several cheapies, we eventually bought Pico telescoping camping chairs - more pricey but solid and long-wearing. They fit in a small case.
You'll probably need do laundry and buy fresh groceries a little more often, but that was never a problem for us.
