I wouldn't drive a car in NYC let alone a class A motor home. Find the nearest commuter train station to where you are staying (or drive to one that's closer to the city, the parking at these stations is pretty good), take the train to Grand Central, then take the subway. There is a subway stop about 2 blocks from Battery Park, which in itself is a cool place to visit. The ticket/check-in station and ferry dock for the islands is in Battery Park. I know of no place in the area that could accommodate a class A.
That said, be prepared for two security checks. One on on the mainland, and one before you enter the statue. Lines can be slow, especially weekends. Much worse than most airports.
Make sure you include a stop at Ellis Island, if it's not included with your tour. We thought Ellis Island was going to be boring, but it was very cool to see.
