I know some people do this, but how difficult is it to use a short C (looking at rigs like the Sunseeker 2250 or the 2300) as the main vehicle for a long trip. Of course, a "B" would be the best choice, but with the off-season coming up, I can pick up a 2013 Sunseeker or Freelander for a lot less than a new class "B".
I am also wondering this because RV storage is a premium, and at best, I might be able to find a typical parking spot as a place to store something, perhaps allowing for a couple feet to hang over.
Is running around with a 23-24' C fairly easy (as in hitting strip malls in small towns, parallel parking at a county convention, or having to deal with Houston or Dallas traffic)? I have no frame of reference on the difficulty of doing this, so this is why I'm asking.
Just returned from a 7 state 4100 mile trip with our Nexus Phantom 23P - same size as the Sunseeker 2300. No problem getting around town, fits between the lines in a parking lot but at 24' it is a tad longer than some of the slots. Do watch out for steeply dipped driveways as even a short C can drag its butt a little. On ours the only thing that hits is the bottom of the Class IV hitch so no harm, no foul. Most of the B's I am seeing are nearly as long, some even longer, than ours and you are right.... they are way more expensive with a lot less room inside. :C
