Have you priced the Class C yet? (don't forget to add mileage if it's more than the contract allows) Now add the price of fuel at 8 mpg. Are you prepared for those expenses?
If so, you may consider possibly purchasing a tow behind.

Either way, I say go for it. Good or bad it will be a family bonding experience that you will remember for the rest of your lives.
