Hi and newby to the C class world
Hi gang, Frank here. I have been in the truck camper section for over 10 years, and will be searching for a small C after I move to Florida in a few months. I have done a bit of searching, but have ...

I love our short C but we do have the bed in the overhead. I think the smallest with a bed below is about 24'. You can get a corner bed in several older models but usually with only a dinette and chair, not a couch. I like having both a couch and a dinette in ours. I look at small RV layouts all the time and have yet to find one I really like. Probably the older sprinter Views and Navions are my favorite with the beds below and overhead. Some of them have a couch instead of a dinette.
The trucks are great because they are proven. Likely to be gas, either Ford, which is ours or the Chevy which is rarer. A bit of spark plug issue in the late 90 Fords--up to 2002 or so. Our is a 2002 and we have not had an issue. But I have read that the mechanics are used to the problem now and don't make the same mistakes made in the early years. Plugs aren't changed until 100,000 miles so really it is not an issue for most RV's.
I have no experience with any other type of RV but do really like our rig. Good luck with your search.
