Excellent info for a first time buyer who is feeling a bit hysterical about making the final decision! Being a single female, I travelled with a friend in a Class C motor home and loved it so now shopping for my own. Have narrowed it down to the Class A Axis RUV (gas) vs a diesel Class C (Four Winds Siesta). My concern is that the Class C seemed so much easier to drive on the highways, the Class A seemed to be blown by every passing truck or gust of wind. Having never driven anything this size, I'm wondering if that's just something you get used to or is it really difficult to drive. I plan to make it across the U.S and into Alaska so want to be safe. Also, any advice on negotiating the price on a new RV - how much off the MSRP is reasonable for RV's? I appreciated the advice on researching your dealer as I can see that I may require much support in the orientation phase - will plan several small trips in my area before jumping off on the "big road trip". Thank you for any and all advice.
