I am not a full timer but will be as soon as I sell my house.

If you full time it the class A can be equipped with a real full size refrigerator and a dish washer. There are other reasons to get a class A if you full time it, the A is going to have more storage room and the ability to live off grid in comfort.

If you plan to live off the grid then don't think about a 'real' refrigerator and a dish washer or washer & dryer. You'd need a LOT of solar, batteries and running the generator a lot. In addition, your holding tanks wouldn't be large enough for all the water you're using.

I guess I did not explain myself, I was not talking about weeks at a time. What I was talking about spending weeks at a time off grid. I have not wandered too far from the east coast lately but many years ago I would spend a few days off grid in places where you could spend a weekend without seeing another soul. I do not know if it is still done but back then they worked on the honor system, I filled out my info with name and plate number along with cash and dropped it in a box. At the time I considered what could happen and the possibility of something bad happening and. No one would find my body for weeks. I was glad I traveled with the ability to protect myself. If I am able to sell my house and full time it I would like to venture off the beaten path for a few days at a time. If I had no other options I could live quite comfortably in my 5th wheel. But I have become spoiled and pampered by having a French door fridge with in door ice dispenser, I sure as heck do not need a dishwasher but it would be nice to have. My current fiver has central vac, DirecTV dish, sleep number bed, washer/dryer etc. But if I am going to give up my house I would like to have all the latest cool stuff offered in modern RVs. I have been preparing and doing research and it seems as if the "A"s and super "C"s offer stuff that is not available in other class RVs
