Customizing new RVs?
Hi folks So I've been doing tons of online research (but still haven't set foot in a RV since 1970-something). Right now I think we're leaning more toward Class B. It will be cramped, but it's just...

We're not planning to buy until spring, and also planning to rent one first to see how we like it. Right now we're just looking around online, checking out floor plans and different brands. We're not going to be full timing, it's mostly just going to be used for a few long weekends a year, and I'd be using it to go to game conventions for my side biz and "boondock" in the parking lot for a night or 2, or stay at nearby campgrounds and drive there and back, rather than staying in hotels that are really expensive during the conventions. So I also was thinking class B because I'm guessing it will get better gas mileage in general? And the conventions are another reason I'd like to be able to blend in more.
I was looking at the smaller Class C's (or B+?) but we also kind of worry about having too many seams that could spring a leak some day. If it was a full van it would be like all 1 piece. Or does that not really matter? We were also looking into smaller Class A's like the new Winnebago brave, but were thinking that a B would be easier to get serviced.. like we could just take it to any mercedes dealership? I do kind of like the Winnebago Trend though, that has the bed that drops down that we'd have for if we ever had company.
So we don't really need anything too big. Mostly looking for small and easy & fun to drive, I doubt we'd be traveling more than a days ride anywhere so I don't think we need massive tanks to boondock for weeks on end :)
