Class C vs Class A

[LetsRV]

Okay, so what are the advantages of a Class C over a Class A (gas or diesel)??

Info: just the two of us and a couple of four-legged fur kids. Generally out once or twice a month, Mar thru Oct, from 3 days at a time to a couple of week.s

Here is a recent thread on the subject.
Class A or C, that is the question

Agreed, basically it amounts to roominess. How much room do you require in your RV to enjoy your experience. We had a 31 ft Class C. We bought it for spouse and I and our 1 large dog to travel in, plus our daughter abd her family to join occasionally. We wanted the extra sleeping room for some fun family trips. We had a blast with it! Now however, our situation has changed. We want to take longer trips with just the two of us, and the 1 large dog. Daughter and family are looking to buy their own TT. We no longer need the sleeping accommodations as much as a little more elbow room and storage. We don't have the $ to justify the diesel expense, and we prefer a new unit to a used one. We have found our 2014 36 ft gas unit is now a perfect fit for us.

Hi,

The class C can be serviced by any heavy truck dealership. Class A may be a little more problematic.

Class A has lots more storage. Often costs a lot more than a Class C.

This is a personal choice, your needs (lots of room or smaller). I have not had a Class A, but I have had travel trailers, 5th wheels, one truck camper and now we have what we like the best, a small Class C. Our Winnebago View Profile 24v, 25' long, diesel, lots of room the two of us, plenty of storage inside and outside. It is so easy to drive and park. Our mileage has been as low as 15 (once) and over 17 three times and our total average is 16.03. We have traveled over 10,000 since Aug 2013 and for us it is great for traveling and camping for a week in one spot too. A Class A would have more of everything, storage, living space and your mileage would be a lot less, but who buys an RV to save money. We also had a Roadtrek 190 Chevy gas, we got 16 mpg very good traveling RV just to small for us. Rent a Class A or a C and try it out. Good luck - Dale
