^^^^ Lets see Alaska, Canadian Northern territories, Mexico and the desert states of the U.S. Current rig has been down quite a bit off dirt roads been to the Artic Circle and the whole length of the Baja Penninsula. As far as being important thats irrelevant just another form of boondocking for me an I'm retired an enjoying life just going to try another style of RV .
The problem with going big for North America is that you are then having to tow a vehicle to get into most remote areas. You are limited to where you can drive/ camp with a big rig.
My class C with just the little extra width from my truck camper was a huge issue. Forest service roads were out. Many times just exploring a road was an issue as I needed so much space to turn around. The width on dirt roads was a problem as I was the width of the road.
I was out a couple weeks ago and watched a couple in a smaller Unimog have issues with navigating roads that I had no issues with in my class B. Toss in the poor turning radius and they were having a lot of issues that a smaller unit would not have.
