Thank you for your helpful advice and support. These three were listed as class Bs and I knew the GulfStream wasn't, but I thought the Kodiak was, until I looked closer. (And I still think the Chinook is a Class B - or maybe B+?) Anyway - appreciate the responses.
The Chinook is a Class C. The main difference between B and C is the B starts out in life as a real van, the C starts life as a cutaway chassis. Unlike a van, on a C, the part behind the cab is a separate box. I believe the box on the Chinook is fiberglass.
Note also, that the so-called B+ is really a C with a small overhang above the cab instead of a bed-size overhang. The B+ overhang is usually storage space -- no room for a bed.
Its all marketing. What would you rather have: a B+ or a C-
