Deciding what type of RV

This only what I have experienced, been told, and read:

1. If it has a GAS engine it'll probably get pushed around. Engine doesn't cause this of course. I say this because the chassis a gas engine is installed in can't completely control the forces.

2. Super C on a stiffened suspension is probably the minimum. By that I mean the Kodiak types. Some of those were under-sprung in the rear.

3. Most Diesel Pushers can control your trailer load. Again, because they're simply a bigger more capable chassis.

4. RV.net groups all the Super C's together, but there's a big difference between a Kodiak-based one (Duramax or 8.1 gas) and what I call a Show Hauler. The Big Guys. Again, my opinion, but those are the ones that take command and get it done.

I know my next door neighbor used a Class C to do the same thing, suffice to say that didn't last long as he now has a Class A which he says does the job to his satisfaction. Lost a lot of money but he was never happy with the towing performance of his Class C. Good luck with your decision.

This SAME post is running in Beginning RV'ing, posted yesterday.

Apparently he didn't like the answers he got there who were BTW all from Class C owners! :C
