I went the other way - Class A to a fiver.
Unless you go for a higher level MH, preferably a DP, you will find the ride to be AWFUL.
Mine was a Coachmen on a Ford F53 chassis and it shook the fillings out of my teeth.

Coachmen were of no help "What do you expect, it's a Fedex truck chassis?"
Truck and fiver is a better ride, even if it does bounce on some of the rougher roads.
So, if you go from a Class A, be sure to drive it on some rough roads before you commit to make sure you can live with it.
I have to beg to differ also. My F53 chassis with a 37ft Moho rides fabulous. Everyone who has ridden with me has commcommented on the ride and the power it has to pull hills in such a big rig.
