A or C

Hello,
My wife and I are hoping to move to Oregon.
We will likely use the RV to live in while building on some land.
We are new to this and are Junior Seniors. (Over 50 and under 65) HaHa.
We also have quite a few pets. Ok Alot.
We have a 20 year old daughter now in University.
She is the reason for so many pets. 4 dogs and 6 cats.
I know :)
We are budgeted for a used one.Hopefully between 15000 and 30000.
The bigger the better. Advice?
Thanks for helping the newbies.

    Exactly what I was thinking...can get a brand new one in that price range or an even better used model.

    I think you'll more readily find a class C in your price range than a Class A, not that a good deal on an A can't be found, but for that price, you'll probably end up with something pretty old, that may need work.
  • The mod will move you to the proper forum. I'm not offering a specific model, but suggest you begin making a list of things you must have and things you would like to have. For us, a few musts would be 50 amp service, a bed that can be easily made, or walk-around. A 4-season, or insulated unit. Ten gallon water heater minimum.

    Would like to haves: A residential fridge, opposing slide-outs, 2nd air conditioner. It's an intriguing question and I'd think you'll get lots of answers. By the time you get into your new home, you'll know what you needed. LOL

    I want to read the dogs and cats and kid comments!
