For wilderness travel forget about a motorhome but try to get the shortest one you can live with while traveling. Lots more camping spaces available for sub 30 foot RV's and much easier negotiating back roads with a shorter wheelbase.
I agree about the short wheel base. With our Chevy 3500 we often have to work our way around turns on some of the one lane Mt. roads. Also the rear overhang on some like ours has an upsweep on the rear. We have never drug the rear. But I do not go to true 4wd country. Just back roads most dirt or gravel. A couple must carry things are shovel, pick, axe and chainsaw. Often need to make the road a bit better or clear limbs so we can pass. Also if like us you will leave it parked alone for a few days while walking into some place you want to go. Do not have a stand out rig. Just another older C class parked among the old pickups works best.
Being only 25 ft. overall we never worry about finding a spot to park. There is always some small spot for us.
