Carri Go wheel base

[hilcntry]

Greetings!
A couple questions if you please. I recently down sized from a larger
Class C Four Winds Chevy chassis to a 22 ft Carri Go, model 2110,
Ford E450, year 2005. The Four Winds was a handful to drive in winds, had Air Lift bags put in all four corners, helped marginally.
Short trips in the Carri Go indicate it will be better behaved on the
road. Traveling to the Western National Parks after Labor Day.
My questions are is the Carri Go considered a Class B or C machine?
The small cab overhead houses an entertainment center, no bunks and
trying to find the wheel base specs. Searching the web found no results.

It is built on a cut away frame it is a Class C.

Found some specs on the Carri Go that may help.

Hi Helen,

I don't have your answer on a Carri-Go's wheel base but I can say that they captured my attention when I was shopping around back in 2006/2007. I ruled them out only because they were 3" taller than my garage door could handle.

About your question in regards to what class that Carri-Go is. When any RV manufacture starts with a cut-away chassis that looks like this, it is a class C. The aero-dynamic cap is commonly referred to as a B+ but is still officially a class C. The cut-away chassis is sold by companies like Ford & GM, for applications like motor homes, ambulances work trucks and box trucks. Some are sold with the back wall and some without pending the application.

Welcome, Helen!

If it has a "Coach Body" it's a Class C. Some call them "B+" but technically a B is build inside or mostly inside a panel van's body. A C, whether it has cabover bunk or just a fairing with entertainment center, is built on a CutAway van chassis. The factory sheet metal stops at the door frames, doesn't even have a back wall. Coach body takes over from there.

There may be a sticker in the door frame from the coach builder saying what the "new" wheelbase is if the chassis was stretched. Ours has two stickers. One from Ford saying 158" and one from Jayco saying 218" for a 60"/5-ft stretch. It's also stretched behind the axle.

I'd guess yours is an original 158" but it's easy to measure. Drop lines from the centers of the front and rear hubs to the ground, measure between them.
